Survive

Some days it's hard to breathe.
Some days it's hard to open my eyes. 
Some days it's hard to move. 
Some days are hard. 

Some days it's better to sleep. 
Some days it's better to have friends. 
Some days it's better to talk. 
Some days it's better. 

Some days it's easy to pretend.  
Some days it's easy to ignore it all. 
Some days it's easy to smile. 
Some days it's easy. 

Some days are hard. 
Some days are better. 
Some days are easy. 
All days I survive.

You have a good concept here, but I think in practice this is a little too repetitive. We get the gist of this after the first stanza, basically, and after that it gets old fast. I'd either leaven this out by only using your 'some days' tagline only in one or two stanzas and put in a few different ones to spice this up, or make this a lot shorter.

The poem is about my mental health problems, particularly the repetitive nature of the thoughts I often have and the feeling I experience. It was written during a particularly difficult stage in my depression but thank you for the feedback.
