Hammering through difficulties in a sense.

This is my hammer.

I take and hold my hammer.

Then strike a blow.

Which crashes, penetrates

and breaks down all walls.

I will hammer out depression.

Pound out all doubt.

Break through the pain.

and smash anything that hinders me

from living a normal life.

I will take this hammer and let it assist me

with the work I need to do.

With this hammer I will secure the nails,

that will hold together my life.
