Depression, PTSD, Anxiety...This Poem Reflects The Way These Disorders May Feel..,
There Is Hope And Help For Those Who Suffer In Silence. Vickie Thayer
A wisp of hair sticks to my lips,
I attempt to lick it free,
Winds pick up,
As if to sink ships,
The strand holds fast,
So I just leave it be,
Sun shoots down,
On my pasty skin,
Its warmth can't satisfy me,
Lily white,
As if death has sunk in,
A funeral march,
For all to see,
Walking on paths,
Crooked and dark,
A journey of much uncertainty,
I Hide in a bottle,
My glass of courage,
Is disappointing me,
Death feels near,
My hope is Wounded,
I Hate this monster,
That refuses to leave.
