Looking back on a time when
I was young and alive
Self destructive and reckless yet
Somehow I survived
Endless parties that started only
When you arrived
Fuelled on excess drink and poisons
Of which you thrived
My own life didn’t begin
Until I contrived
To divest myself of you
And not feel deprived
Those memories not happy
But filled with heartache
Lost youth that was wasted
On you- my misguided mistake
“Youth comes but once in a lifetime.”
Henry Wadswoth Longfellow
A lot from Lydia 
…a time when one feels invincible! Hey, we made it through!

I guess we have all been there. If we are here, we made it, right? Right.
