The Return


			I have escaped from the abuse.
			But after a while,
			I yearn to help others through their problems,
			I yearn to be a pillar supporting them.
			I must resurrect this pillar
			That has crumbled in my absence.
			Though I will try to restore this pillar,
			My mortar may yet fail.
			But, I will not let this friendship 
			Lie fragmented where I left it.
