I happened upon a certain memory of mine, Written down on the back of a business card, And immediately became aphonic, Muted, As I stared blankly at it, Reliving that exact same stare, Same moment, That took place well over two years ago, When it all began. So many emotions rushed through me. But at the end of it all, Happiness prevailed. And I smiled, Knowing that I'm still here today. I lived through it. Can tell the story that came from it. Perhaps the most prohibitive tribulation I've ever known Is becoming easier and easier to look back on. In retrospect, That little business card had been sitting there in my wallet For that long. And it serves as a definite and tangible reminder That I was not built to break.
Resilience. Rebirth.
