With good mental health, agility and stealth
I feel the richest of the rich with emotional wealth.
The daily white noise turns to ambient symphonies,
Of delicate notes that harmoniously appease.
No longer required is careful selection of when to look at my reflection,
I’m content with myself and dispel ‘perfection’.
The darkness is lit, set ablaze and with it burns the sense of malaise,
The world has opened as illness leaves its last kiss,
Life now extending a hand, never again a fist.
Freedom is ours.
