Killing despair by hope.

While people were counting their blessings, I was contemplating my past, pondering where it all went wrong, how did i get myself here. I dragged myself through broken glass, so you can imagine the wounds i'm left with, instead of healing them, I enchained myself with fear and despair, my morose state was slowly taking over my being. to the point where i no longer allowed a ray of sunlight in my place.
But i had to break off those chains, that held me captive for so long. I destryoed myself with my own two trembling hands. it is universally acknowledged that the greatest battle fought is the one fought against ourselves. So i had to free myself from myself, as foolish as it sounds.I'm my worst enemy. 
I dragged myself to the window and opened it, sunshine kissed my face as a lover would kiss his beloved. and I recompensed it with a faint smile. 
I walked to the door and opened it real slow to avoid that creak, I stepped out, my eyes were slowly getting used to the daylight, it was refreshing and i could smell the scent of the far away sea in the air.
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes and i let the morning breeze gently caress my face and hair. I smiled brightly than ever, as I could finally hear hope whisper in my ears again.
