A Cobbled Street
by Tom O'Sullivan
The cobbled street was the perfect place for me
It offered no reflection, save for the dampness which offered a dim light.
A cold dim light
My thoughts jumbled yet focussed on the chaos, a chaos in remission.
Lonely, scared, vulnerable
That was me
I stare at the floor not as a person defeated
As a victor
Looking at my feet which will soon be taking me away
On my own but not alone
My strength as my partner and my guide
A new life is waiting for me, somewhere
I will find it and never again let life find me
I am ready.
