I used to create poems in my head and forget about it but this is the first time writing it down

Poem:

When I was studying for my diploma I used to run with no direction but I ran with most effort even when my body couldn't keep up.

Sometimes I think that somethings are not meant to be but I ran so that wouldn't become truth.

I was malnourished, skinny, my body was always sore, tight, weak but I ran.

People used me, betrayed me, disrespected me but I ran.

Now I know what I need to do, what i need to prepare for, i have direction but I am scared to run.

Maybe I am afraid of the legs I used to have but what I fear now is the very thing that kept me running

Hi, 20m. I used to be a basketball athlete but quit playing basketball, went into severe depression, existential crisis and gained 15kgs of weight in 4 months. I started to hate my body and now for past 1 month iam going to practice and gym to regain my physique and I did quite a progress but still i am having this wave of depression every night like i am not enough, my face looks ugly, this isnt who I suppose to be because i used to be skinny and lean once. I don't know how to handle this
