I am so scared when I leave this place,
it will all fall apart again.
For then I will have to fight this plague inside,
thats screaming deep down within.

The pressures, the pain, the yearning for more
I can't even begin to explain.
And I don't want to fall down that deep dark hole
and put you all to shame.

I don't want to blame anyone else,
for all the bad things I have done.
I just want to get back to my old self again,
but my battle has just begun.

Bethany, as with all battles the thing I keep trying to make myself remember is that it isn't how many times I fall, but how many times I get back up. I wish you the strength to always get back up.

I wonder sometimes if there are times that we can get back to our old selves...maybe, maybe not...maybe there are times for new selves too!
