it's starting to get warmer
so the windows can now be opened
no more cold weather
now i breathe the fresh air
while still lay in my bed
i open my blinds
i let the sun light in
as it illuminates my room
i smile
i feel happy again
the cold days are draining
they're depressing
i can't go outside and enjoy
the sunlight
i was born with a vitamin D deficiency
so i love the sun
i was raised in the sun
even tho i am so pale
i love the bright yellow sun
as it makes my skin tingle
i smile even harder
because i know
i lived to experience
another summer
in South Carolina
but this summer will be different
i will enjoy this summer
because i am happy
i have defeated the depression
and anxiety
and now i can really enjoy
the sun and the warm rays
that hit my skin
this will be a good summer
