Well, it isn’t Monday but I wrote this after a group session which is held on Mondays

Mondays
Today I learned to breathe.
Today I learned how to feel free.
Like a sip of water in my cupped hand
It all slips away like grains of sand.

Today I remembered how to cry.
Today I remembered how to feel alive.
But like nostalgic scents hovering in the air,
I let it go for a second, and now it’s not there.

Today I discovered how to smile.
Today I threw away the self-denial.
An open door into a better life
Further away from the edge of this knife.

Today I learned how to feel.
Today I learned that it’s ok to be real.
Today I took my hands off my eyes
I let myself see, and I was surprised.
