Some days are harder than others.
Those are the days encounter feelings that we buried down deep.
They come knocking to get attention from us.
They come because they feel lonely,.
They come because they want healing.

Some days we wake up feeling confined and stuck.
We hold everything in, only for it to eventually burst.
And that's why in those days tears become inevitable.
We wake up with our eyes saggy because we cried ourself to sleep.
We wake up with more tears wanting to flow.

Some days it's not easy to hold on to the hope.
We wake up wondering if it's all worth it.
Depression comes knocking on our doors with an invitation.
Everythings seems to be consuming every bit of our breath.
And those days pushing through seems to be so much work.

But it is those days where we can choose to face it all.
We can choose to face the rejection.
We can choose to face those feelings we buried down.
We can face them to heal them.
We can face depression and shut the door back at it.
It is those days where we choose ourselves.
