I have fought hard with Anxiety Having been swung between Two spheres of moods One of melancholy and the other Of excited elated optimism
Between the two I would exhaust myself Day and Night And to deal with my emotions Was no easy task
I would cry and weep I would feel down And blame myself I would apologize For being thus I was not in my element I tell When I am fresh I feel I have lagged behind Due to missing things while at low
It has been one sad plight For me to have come thus far I am still hopeful of a day When I have overcome These swinging moods I hope to keep a positive Spirit that enables me To act constructively When I can't be constructive I would just start affirm That I am more Than I think I am Then I start To work like I have been Able bodied and able minded Sitting here jotting down makes it all come to view. Affirm and believe that is what i do now to be better each day
I am responsible I am reliable I ma resourceful I am resilient
i am healthy; i am lucky ; i am virtuous; i am organized
I feel the energy when I say these I act different when I say these I have faith surging into my veins From somewhere or nowhere I create, I cook, I clean, I write, I eat, I make tea, I feed my family I pray, I meditate, I am not overwhelmed i am a wonderful person When I affirm I can live with this person She is good to me She thinks highly of me She attracts nice friends to her She is just pleasant to be around She is someone I could love forever She is my friend and hero She is my superstar and confidant She is all I need to keep me Close to the Creator I love her I love me I love the positive me I love the quiet me I love the peaceful me I love the loving me I love the lovable me i love all that she could be I love all that she gave up for me I love her day and night I love being with her all my life I need noone but her I need nothing but her love I need nothing but her assurance I need only her She and I We are one and the same We play and plan together We are best friends We create our good times We are the joy of the world We are the gift to the world Together we conquer Together we let go Together we enjoy the ocean Together we go places Together we are I and myself
In Reply to this My friend Raji Unnikrishnan posted her Poem on FB: "Swinging high on my flimsy moods, sometimes blue and another green.
I meditate in the depths of calm blue sea and the serene vast of the sky.
I spring back, like a nature fresh broccoli or a fidgeting garden lizard.
Then I go blue, gloomy and dull, sad to the brim that it almost bursts.
Only to rebound into a harmony of crisp green, all riveting and relaxed."
