I see you thinking….
I see you trying not to let the hurt in.
I hear you…. The repeated thoughts that do not end.
I saw you… I saw you falling apart again.
I heard you…. Your plan’s being thoughtfully thought out.
I felt you…. I felt your pain.
I see me trying.
I see me praying.
I see me alone.
I see me ashamed.
I feel me …. My battle with depression that doesn’t seem to end.
I feel me…. Not letting you hurt me again.
I feel me… feeling strong again.
Finally, I see me. I saw me. I hear me. I feel me… I am starting to feel my joy once again.
