I will always know
when I am ready
for what,
I will always know what I need;
It doesn’t matter that the jobcentre work coach is back in touch,
That I will have to defend that corner now, too,
Because I know that once I finally get my own place,
A chance to breathe,
And let out that long-held breath,
That’s when the (long) recovery begins;
See because from the start, it’s been out of my hands,
I’ve known what I needed,
Completely independently of any obligations or assessments pushed upon me;
The price of not receiving the support that I need,
To progress towards the goals that I have,
Is reaching the end of the road;
This has been clear in my mind all along,
That is what I would have to face,
Because without that support, time and space,
I’ve had absolutely nothing left to lose.
This is why, when they deemed me to be fit for work,
I told them (politely) the result was totally irrelevant.
Up to now, they have responded to that,
But I have no fear of the alternative.
I know what is true, and what is true I know.
I will always defend the truth,
To the very end.

I am happy that in all this flurry of events you have a clear idea who to be and where to go π

Thanks! :). Me too. The whole thing actually started with that, and the path to reach it has involved an awful lot of backwards and sideways steps π. At times it’s been the only thing to hold onto, and that wasn’t easy, so I’m thankful for that.

I think it’s very important for a person to have space and peace (inside and outside) to be able to clear their minds and prepare for the next steps. I hope everything keeps moving along in the right direction.
