I've wanted to post this
For a while,
Haven't been able to settle on what to Say. 
I've been in a dark place, 
Missing the suns Ray's
Which are so necessary to my life.

So first, I guess, I want to
Apologize, for so far
Failing to follow your advice.
Robin Williams.
Carrie Fisher.
I try so hard, 
It's just not happening.

Second,
I am still trying. 
I am still living.
Breathing.
And though that ledge and abyss
Call with a tempting song,
I will stay, and continue,
For a long time more.

Third.
For you, dear reader,
It may feel like your spark has vanished. 
I promise it hasn't. 
Theres still a flicker, that needs
A little attention and love.
It will keep you centered,
On the person you are and wish
To be.

Lastly.
The steps are difficult, at times,
Breathing more so.
Sometimes existing at all is pain.
Find those happy, every day moments,
Much like in a 
Miyazaki movie,
That make life a bit more
Bearable. 
Perhaps they can help you find the
Path beneath your feet.
