I look back sometimes...
April 2, 2016
I look back sometimes,
on darker days,
When every happy moment,
seemed to fade away.
The sound of the toilet flushing
The knife blade against my skin
The sound of my mother crying
when she didn't know if I would live,
The feeling of being of being an outsider
Will stay with me to my grave,
And even to this day,
It has still not gone away
I look back on darker days sometimes,
Because that's all they are,
Memories, that have brought me so, so far

What I think about sometimes when I think about the days I no longer wanted to live and how, in some way, it has effected me for the better.
The appreciation I have for life is so much greater and even though I still struggle with depression, as do others, I know there's a bright light at the end of the tunnel
Light isn't worth giving up.
