The Journey of Resilience

Conquering Darkness, Embracing Light

By Saloni PatidarPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

In the depths of darkness and despair,

I battled with my mind, my soul laid bare,

Depression and anxiety ruled my days,

I wanted to break free, to find new ways.

But no one stood beside me in my fight,

No one to help me see the light,

I struggled on alone, my spirit crushed,

The weight of my struggles felt too much.

I searched for hope, for a glimmer of light,

To overcome these demons and win the fight,

And slowly but surely, I found my way,

I learned to never give up, come what may.

I stood up tall and faced the storm,

I refused to let these struggles transform,

My life into a never-ending race,

I fought for my happiness, my rightful place.

So if you're facing battles of your own,

Don't be afraid to fight and moan,

You have the strength to overcome,

And rise above the struggles you're from.
