I smile, I laugh, I crack jokes,
I engage in productivity and
conversation.

Not for the benefit of my mental health,
But for the benefit of reassuring the
people around me that I can and will
keep fighting my personal demons.

That I am strong enough to get up
every day to look them in their
many eyes and smile back with
a fierce grin when they bare
fangs at me.

Forward one step,
Backward two;
I may have scars,
physical and mental,
But I can live for others
if not myself.

I need to [Added 13 June 2018]
