Today I woke up and the day seemed brighter
My brain was less fuzzy, my heart a little lighter
It’s funny how stress and anxiety destroy us inside,
so much so that we don’t always see our own best side
It’s funny how not sleeping can make you feel so shitty
and how getting a little rest suddenly dissolves your self-pity
How your appetite returns and your sarcasm soon after,
and how you realize you even miss the sound of your laughter
The heat is still there, trying to push through
but suddenly you don’t give a shit because you feel like you
It’s funny how something so stigmatized and judged,
can help you be you with that little serotonin nudge
