when the
ache in my chest has subsided,
when that worried feeling finally goes away.
when i can wake up without feeling weighed
down.
when i can feel ease and know contentment.
when happiness is enjoyed and no longer so
fleeting.
when i can put this depression down.
when i can lock this anxiety away.
when food is just food and friends are just
friends.
when work is passion and family is love.
surely then this ache would go away.
