Not everyone heals in time
A particular failing of mine
Like failing to pick up on signs
And failing to follow my own good advice
A small hollow victory then
When I can't even turn to my friends
Without you still turning the knife because
Not everyone heals in time
At least I have some lessons to learn from it
Some bitter lessons, my skin is still burning from it
My back still bearing the knife that you turn because
You'd rather I was silent than speak my mind
But I know now that I could never heal fast enough
It's not my scars that we'd have needed to get past enough
I've realised I need to leave you behind because
Not everyone heals in time
Slow down
You are
Not alone
Slow down
You are
Now awake
Without feeling safe
It's like you were never afraid
