A newly (re)found hope

A poem about the feelings I got after I've been deeply in sadness

As I was swimming deeply
in my sorrow's mudy waters,
I was feeling sleepy,
And thus I let myself rest.

Unspoken nightmares, while dreams
were my reality, while I was facing,
my own unwanted duality,
of a man happy and a shadow dark.

I noticed a light,
A voice of love so bright,
That I could not resist
And I woke up got off my dream.

What I was afraid while in the land
Of dreams, that fake realm,
Now seems a lie,
While to laugh and smile I try.

My nightmare happily ended
And in real life I make effort,
To feel joy.
Nothing is for free, but everything can be earned

Author's Note

Getting over depression, even if it's for a short period of time, feels like waking up from nightmares and looking at a bright sky. Those were my feelings these days so I wanted to write about it
