Molte grazie amico mio. It's a concept that I battle with quite frequently. I do believe that my inner demons have found a way to become my closest friends and furthest enemies at the same time.
What you said reminded me a lot about my favorite quote by David Elkins - "If someone told me that I could live my life again free of depression provided I was willing to give up the gifts depression has given me--the depth of awareness, the expanded consciousness, the increased sensitivity, the awareness of limitation, the tenderness of love, the meaning of friendship, the apreciation of life, the joy of a passionate heart--I would say, 'This is a Faustian bargain! Give me my depressions. Let the darkness descend. But do not take away the gifts that depression, with the help of some unseen hand, has dredged up from the deep ocean of my soul and strewn along the shores of my life. I can endure darkness if I must; but I cannot live without these gifts. I cannot live without my soul."

But the poem was really good, and I liked the beginning, but the end was a bit random in my opinion, it seems as if you got off track
