(No Title)

My depression is finally drawing back.

The birds...I can hear them sing!
The clouds...they have gone away!
The jungle has disappeared,
And the ocean sways at my feet.
A whole new beginning has begun.

Life is at my door, smiling, so sweetly.
I smile back, and give her my hand.
"Im glad you're back Mia."
"Thank you... Im glad I'm back too."
She gives me a warm embrace,
And a tear nearly escapes my eye.

But she and I both know better,
I will not cry.
I will not shed a tear of distraught.
I am finally breathing again.
And now that I do breathe evenly,
I must my save all my tears.

I took my pain and threw far back,
Into the depths of the jungle.
Hopefully never to find it again,
I won't need to be in the jungle,
Anytime soon of course!

Life, she grabs my hand tightly,
"Are you ready to fly?"
I widen my eyes like a goldfish.
"I..I've always wanted to fly...
With everyone else..."

She looks at me contently, gently.
Then quickly removed my shackles.
Spontaneously I feel the air.
The wind kicks in and I sore.
