"Moonlit Valley" is a collection of original poems and illustrations expressing one author's continued journey to work through depression, anxiety, and poor self-esteem. It is all about finding a safe space after escaping the darkest of places, and the fear of then leaving the comfort zone to venture on to better things and the struggles that come with recovering from trauma.
You safely climbed down the mountain
From your darkest place
Years of extraneous work
And found a valley
There
You lay amongst the flowers
Beneath the sweet, cool light of the moon
Cradled and cozy in the grass
And the soothing, gentle breeze
There is another climb ahead
Another mountain waits
A castle at the summit
To journey on
Means another struggle
Before the safety of the next peak
Its daunting
You're safe here in the valley
But this is just a pocket
You want to grow
You want to continue
Yet it is so very peaceful here
Secure amongst the flowers of the moon.
