Leaving Nadir-
The air waxed stale, the milieu cold,
in the pit where I've lingered too long.
I mused, "Why delay the exit,
from this place that's void of song."
I'm digging out, not crawling in.
I'm climbing up, not diving.
I'm breathing air not breathed before.
Not looking back, I'm thriving.
I'm heading home to the better way,
not drenched in guilt or fear.
I've packed my bags and moving on.
At last, I'm leaving Nadir.
