[ swimming in endorphins ]

the only saving grace i found
these past few months of
my depression was exercise

it's weird how the body when
faced with pain pushes out
everything that is unnecessary
to focus on the ache

exercise is therapeutic like that
it makes my head go quiet and
i get 45 minutes or even an hour
if i'm lucky of blissful silence before
it starts to get loud again

but i guess it also has
its perks aside from being
an unhealthy coping mechanism

so here i am documenting the rare days where
i feel good about myself days where
anxiety and depression feel like
a lifetime ago temporary yes
but the endorphins will tell me otherwise
