I’VE BEEN AWAY
I've been away, far from blissful moments,
Away from joy that brightens my mood and spirit.
Suffering in silence,
Depressed to a fault,
Wondering when this misery and sadness will end.
I've been away, quite far from love,
Locking doors that could bring it to me,
Shutting windows that might bring a breeze of love,
Developing unwillingness towards moments of love.
Why? What's onto me?
Broken, depressed, and confused, all at the same time.
I've been away, far from a positive mindset
that leads to a path of success.
Failing to plan ahead,
Closing my eyes to seemingly rare opportunities,
Failing to connect with the right people at the right time,
Ignoring encouraging words,
Choosing not to open my mind to opportunities.
I've been away, quite far away, but not anymore.
Never procrastinating,
Never allowing depression and pessimism to get to me.
Now, I'll be away, quite far away from suffering in silence,
Never far away from overwhelming moments of love and opportunities.
I'll stand strong with high hopes,
Because in the end, my happiness, self-development, and success
are things only I can give myself.
I'll never be far away again!
