What a Difference a Year Makes

almost overnight
my indigestion disappeared.
I stopped sweating
profusely.
anxiety was no more.
my nerves became unjangled.
I was hungry.
food began to taste better.
I was relaxed.
my vision cleared, the tightness
in my chest
went away.
I had more energy and pep.
I felt optimistic,
and hopeful,
I even laughed.
I began to sleep better.
have amazing dreams in color.
the clouds cleared,
the sun came out, birds
chirped cheerfully in the trees.
what happened, someone asked,
what's going on,
you're different now.
just one thing, I told them.
one thing and one thing
only, she finally packed
her bags and left.
