My Strength

the wind rushes through the trees

breaking branches that stand in its way

and I think,

what if I had strength like that

to break through anything that stands in my path

to ignore the whispers

from depression and anxiety,

my unwelcome friends,

what if I remembered

I already have that kind of strength

the kind that has moved mountains

and made the light shine

when I needed it the most

and I smile,

because the wind has reminded me

of the one thing I forgot

-my strength
