it's peaceful knowing
the deep knife like
pain is almost healed.
it's peaceful feeling
like I can breathe
at any time of the day.
every small detail
of my life is beautiful
to me now.
I can relax.
my jaw isn't clenched.
I'm healthy again.
it's peaceful knowing
that everything is falling
into place,
after feeling like
everything was coming to an end.
anxiety has diminished
and depression,
though watching me
from behind the corner
down the hall,
can't reach me.
all depression
can do is watch.
watch me choose peace.
watch me choose love.
watch me choose myself again.
