"Moon Rise" is a collection of original poems and illustrations expressing one author's journey to overcome depression , anxiety , and poor self-esteem . It is all about finding hope in the darkest of times, making changes and difficult decisions, in order to rise to the better life you deserve. As the day comes to an end And the sun begins to sink You feel the dark Creeping in Absorbing you The blackness is suffocating But above the fading ember sky A new light rises A celestial symbol A crescent reminder That even in the darkest of times There is hope.
