first steps

First step to falling asleep

Is to fight to stay awake

First step to grieving

Is to let all the hurt in  

First step to healing

Is to find out where you got lost

First step to going back to basics

Is to remember where it all began.

I've been at the starting point

And then suddenly at the end

The journey is all lost somewhere

The people in it are all blurred

All the mistakes made are burnt

All the lessons learnt forgotten

First step towards starting afresh 

Is to first find the reason as to why.
