Making it a stronger day

Poetry: The strength now lies within me.

Mental health difficulty what does it mean?
Is it I can't live my life with gaping holes when everything seems to fall?
Is it possible that these horrors I awake to and live will someday disappear?
Will my life all of a sudden create a new world and I will no longer be.
 
Can I live in that place I want to be?
Can I be what I want to be?
Nothing will challenge me more than the very moment I awake and see everything but me.

Negativity runs through some blood,
Not mine, I will not let it seep into my soul,
For there is light at the end of my world,
There is hope, justice and natural survival,
What does not break me will make me stronger.

So look to yourself as not a person but someone who is what they are,
A loving memory of afar,
That cheap cocktail that no longer exists,
The strength now lives within me to fight what comes my way,
And make it a stronger day.
