A life worth living

I woke up this morning to see light creeping through the blinds
the five seconds of ignorance soon wore away
the burden of reality rushed back into my body
I was used to the rush of crippling anxiety weighing me deeper into wherever I shut my eyes that past evening
However this morning was different
This morning I decided to ignore my desires of sedation, and isolation
This morning I got up, feeling the weight of the world on my shoulders
I put my best clothes on, despite the stairs I was so desperate to avoid
I combed my hair, while hushing the voices of doubt I gently slipped on my shoes,
I walked out my door, basking in the sunlight I finally found a friend in it
my fear and rage seemed to float away as the wind made its way through my hair
Like music was playing the trees danced, Today I remembered what makes life worth living.
