It's been a while since I've wrote a poem, or an entry
It feels like I haven't been honest in almost a century
Feelings are deeper that what we actually feel.  
The emotions quickly turn into something more real.
Maybe anxiety or depression,
But let me tell you, it's all the same, a lesson.  
I was once in a deep dark place,
Confronting the mirror, I couldn't look myself in the face.  
Shadows clouded my every thought and emotion.
Making me feel as if I would never escape the commotion  
All around me was help, yet I couldn’t seem to cry out.  
I couldn’t move, and started to fill myself with doubt.
"Will they ever notice I need to be saved?"
"My voice seems to have completely caved"
All of a sudden, it felt as if an angel had come to my assistance
I gave them my hand with no resistance.  
Slowly I was pulled towards life once again.
I saw things as if my life had just began.
Everything now glows with a new spark and fascination
Everyday I find more and more to give me inspiration
Once I allowed help to take its course on my destined path
I’ve learned to accept the truth in the aftermath.  
Live your life with purpose,
There is much more meaning than what's just on the surface
