She is ...... Happy
She is ......Depressed,
In a way that feels like a river, One that refuses to flow simply because it is displeased with it's own nature
But, she is Existing
She is ......Depressed,
In a sense that is similar to a suicide note
There for show but not serving any "real" purpose because the subject is deceased
When she looks in the mirror, She can not identify the thing she sees in front of her
But, she is Existing
She is Depressed
She is Depressed
She is Depressed
She is ......Content
Finding it easier to open doors that were once bolted shut by compressed emotions
She is Alive
................
She is ......Depressed
Oh God not again, She is not ready
But this time feels different
There is a piece of her freshly renovated heart that passed away with her sister
She feels as though she had passed her contaminated blood onto her
She is ......Existing
As time passes she learns that this is not her fault
She learns that there are people who love her even if she despises herself
She is ......Content
As of now, she can feel the virus being removed from my blood like the sun drying the wet pavement after a rainy day
Unfortunately, her sister was not able to feel this joy
When she looks in the mirror, she see a smile
That river is now flowing and that suicide note does not exist
She can now honestly say that she loves herself
Now she is Living
Now she is Happy
