Bottled

(it's here, it's come,
there's a moment every year where you aren't quite sure you'll
make it
and then it arrives on your
doorstep, like
a breath of air after
drowning, a
warm embrace after
years in the desert, you
forgive every desperate day, every
hopeless heartbeat, you
are washed clean by the sunshine,
by the way twilight
lingers
past your bedtime,
by the way you wake in the morning
already smiling, 

You know there was a time 
you were sure you wanted to die

but it just doesn't matter
now.)
