When your life is falling apart it is very difficult not to get depressed. However, you can find a way our of it. You simply need to ask your inner "I" to release you from negative thoughts.

There’s some pain inside of me suddenly appeared.

In the mirror, I see thee, and my face looks feared.

In smooth circle there’s only smog – there’s no me inside.

With the hard crust of the ice light of day is bound.

 

I want light to be released, but my hand is frozen.

Seems to me that cold’s increased, and my way is chosen.

I don’t grumble at the cold – Sun will bring the light.

You! Don’t grumble, just be bold, and accept this sight.

 

You can open all the doors – do it, do it, please!

You’ll see truth and you’ll see false. Ask and be released!

    Thank you for your wonderful comments, Ace. It is very encouraging, and the encouragement is what the author needs. … well, everyone needs it, I guess. Thanks again.
