Moonlit Valley

"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.
