I left as soon as I found out
It was a sort of release
I felt free but as soon as I reached a certain point
I was filled with dread again

I then saw, something happened.
I saw others drive by and noticed that I was doing it,
  again
It was all in my mind
It was in my head and when it was my turn to pass?
I drove by without a worry

I did, however keep in mind the distance I had left
I could not make it far, so I plotted home
It was late and I was tired, and I had a poem to write

I started to think, again she rose into my mind
It was fitting for she had a rose on her
I knew I should think about me, but she was still
  there
It was new, she was still very new.

It was still very scary, and so was the drive home
I continued my trajectory home
It was time for me to return to my slumber

I had many thoughts, involving all types of people
It was a flurry, a familiar feeling
I still, was amazing of how far I had come

It was still all so different ! Regardless of the
  similarity
I was still scared and nervous but that was okay

It was okay
I am okay

Driving out during the midnight release, I realized that I was good. For the first time. In a long time.
Failure, will be acceptable.
Success, is possible.

I am free.
