The dark old days seem to have parted

left me alone, for a good while now,

The sunshine is beaming through my 

thoughts, feeling so bright and warm.

*

The smile I smile is no longer fake, 

the laugh I  laugh is real too, 

My heart is full of joy, 

no longer heavy and destroyed, 

My shoulders set back, no longer hunched, 

my head held high looking to the sky,

instead of the dark grim pavement under my feet.

*

There’s so much to live for

so much to give, to share

and to see, in our wonderful world

 we live in. 

*

The summer’s sun is not just shinning in the sky

but in my mind, my thoughts, my whole body too.

*

The dark old days have past me by, 

there is a new world waiting for me 

waiting for me to live it!
