Why are you dreaming of a return

To normal?

Your normal was never mine.

 

Your normal gave me pain

And heartbreak.

Your normal was my hell,

My misery.

 

Let this mark the end of your normal

And of mine.

Hope’s last cry for breathing space.

 

Let go of memory’s faulty lies

Live today

For tomorrow’s dreams and

 

Let yesterday’s shadows remind us

How useless

It is to dream of normal.
