One glance
sad eyes
I see
and I connect
knowingly
Assume so much
fear to share
and I connect
even though
you are unaware
Want to acknowledge
the pain in us all
desire to know
you’re not alone at all
and I connect

Acknowledging a problem
Is difficult when
Your brain chemistry
Is messed up
You know something is wrong
But you don’t want to admit
To what you see
As a health failure
Blaming yourself
Thinking others will
Blame you too
Not good enough
Trying to trick yourself
To bypass stuck thoughts
Getting to – “It’s ok
to feel this way”
When you shout back
“It’s not!
What’s wrong with me
That I can’t get better?”
(Understandable anger
Tired and run down
From all – This
internal fighting)
Breath.
Be kind to yourself
and
Do what nobody else can
