Positivity
Foreword: Whilst still on the mountain trek of recovery from a recent mental health crisis, I thought it pertinent to also record the times when the feelings of positivity overrule the negativity war within my brain.
Po si ti vi ty more recently
On certain days
Has taken leave from me
Thought it wise to run and hide you see
But more re cen tly
I have tried
Not to be blind, open my eyes to find
I have a choice to decide, define who is me
To grab the
Po and Si
Mash it with the Ti and Vi
Scrabble high for the T and the Y
Wiggle it and jiggle it
Stir it and shake it
Just enough to feel it
Alive to love it, not to hate it
I deserve to be here
Despite all of my faults
And all my impurities
Are not where I halt
I forgot to see how I was fearfully made
I forgot to see me, I let the sunlight fade
But the beautiful fact about a new dawning day
Is I get to see me, and I'm made this way.
