Toward the Light
Deep in my depression
Everyday life was full of stress
Barely able to get out of bed
Life seemed to be meaningless
When I had my accident
And developed disability
It was a drastic change
In my reality
Too weak to open a can of soup
Caring for myself unable
But due to circumstance
No help was available
Then one day it happened
The answer came to me
Grabbing pen and paper
Started to set me free
I wrote for hours
About gratitude and beliefs
Made some goals for life
Slowly started to feel relief
I began grow stronger
Both in faith and ability
Began to see helping others
Essential to recovery
From the total darkness
Started growing toward the light
Never give up on life
It’s always worth the fight
