I'd be scared 
But I wouldn't do anything 
Just hope for the best. 
I cannot stand the thought 
Of losing a child. 
Things are different now
No running 
My legs are tired 
I'm done. 
Not fucking around with mental health 
None of that. 
I'm never entering that scary place again 
I've learned to value life
Every life 
Something changed in me 
I can't explain it 
I feel like I woke up
