some day


I will be alright

I will be happy

I will be strong

I  will be me again

someday

 

My strength is coming back

it comes in waves

it crashes into me

fire erupts in my soul

but when that fire recedes into the shadows

once again

I am left empty

 

My smiles are not always fake

Happiness is real again

when the corners of my mouth turn up

sometimes it is real

 

I will be alright

I will be happy

I will be strong

I will be me again

someday
