#MentalHealthAwareness Week
November 3, 2020
Tangles of darkness,
woven into my mind so tightly
I can’t tell flower from weed
growing
entangling
drowning in darkness
the vine over my mouth won’t let me talk
won’t let me breathe
pulling me down
down
If you can’t trust your own mind, who can you trust?
AN
OCD
GAD
PTSD
Word & acronyms do not describe anything at all.
