Temporary Ok

I haven't picked up the pen in awhile
For the first time I'm now seeing myself smile
I usually have something bothering me on my mind
Now after a while I guess I'm doing fine
I haven't really been crying
But that battle in my mind I'm always fighting
I now feel like I'm doing okay
This pain that once here isn't going to stay
The tears that used to fall from my eyes have now dried
The pain is slowly going by
I remember back to when I couldn't take it
I remember feeling I wouldn't make it
I felt like I was so close to the edge
It was like everything had gone to my head
That metal was so close to my skin
I felt like I had to let it all sink in
But now I am slowly changing and that past of me is slowly fading...
