Downward Spin

upbeat thoughts dancing in my head have given way to clouds menacing cluttering my brain wish I could believe a few sunrays could melt away the ice built up 'round my heart never again sliding down the old unfathomable abyss AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Posted on March 17, 2019

I am optimistic that you are "not sliding down that unfathomable abyss" and if you are, there will be a more palatable, lovely return trip, my friend.

A most moving poem Line, describing the isolation and hopelessness of mental illness. Kindest thoughts Ann xx
