Please

You are drowning,
Yet smiling soft cream.
Dancing with flames,
A living hell.

 

Walking on glass,
Though your feet don’t bleed.
You are saving yourself.
Please, continue.

 

Flying with broken wings,
You still have hold.
A tunnel light diminishing,
But you are a worn statue.

 

Don’t line furniture like ashes,
Shine on my skin.
You are a desideration,
To all flowing waters.

This is to anyone battling any mental health issue, including depression. Often times, as a society, we tend to brush mental health under a huge rug of insensitivity and lack of understanding. Please, to anyone struggling, hold on.
