Even within the dark forest of my mind
There can come a little light of hope
Flying down from the obscured heavens...

Okay, so I debated for a while on putting this one up, because to be perfectly honest, it's deeply personal to me. I've suffered from mental illness for years, and there are many, many times where I feel like I'm trapped in the dark forest of my mind. Even the depiction of the cage on the girl's head is accurate for it to an extent in saying that your mind is trapped. But there can also be hope too, and that's something I've come to know throughout the years. I bear this girl's scars, but I also bear her hope and reaching for that light. To be perfectly honest, I find no better place to share this then here, considering how kind everyone here is to me and others like me who have gone through things like this. My hope is that someday, everyone will understand that all of this is illness too, just like anything else. But you can fight and find that light, even if it's hard. (OMG, I just had tears in my eyes writing that...)

Anyway, I really hope that everyone likes this and the message of hope I'm trying to convey. May you all find the light through the darker times that we all go through...
