Changes

by Jan Brooks

I feel these changes,
And I have a confession,
Have I beaten it,
That demon they call depression?
Has it left me?
Sometimes I’m not really sure,
But I feel different,
I don’t feel down anymore.
Is it temporary?
The truth is I don’t know,
But I have hope now,
And hopefully my courage will grow.
I feel more confident,
And I feel stronger inside,
Not so emotional,
And my thoughts I don’t have to hide.
Time has proven,
That a broken heart can heal,
The pain can fade,
And happiness I can again feel…
