Its as if from a nightmare
I have woken up
Its as if yesterday
Did not exist
Its as if I am
Someone else
Or back to the person
I used to be
Colours are brighter
Today
Life has meaning
Again
Its as if the fog has lifted once more
And its spring in my heart again
How does one change
So dramatically?
Where do the ups and downs of life
Come from?
Why can I smile today
Whereas before
Frowns carved lines on my forehead
And brow
Why does music entrance me once more?
Why does writing bring me joy?
Why does the world seem full of possibilities?
Why do ideas come to me?
Winter in my heart
Makes me appreciate spring
Winter in my soul
Brought me to the brink
But we endure
We do survive
Even though it seems
Impossible at times
