As a Writer I love to express myself to peers through writing in many forms. Im hoping more people can find the time to post writings, I dont know if this is allowed but i intended this to be a place to post things for self expression.. Heres a poem i wrote about battling depression..
In the depths of my darkness, where shadows thrived,
I battled a demon that sought to divide.
A young adult male, navigating the unknown,
I fought a battle in the realm of my own.
Depression, a relentless foe, claimed its hold,
But within me, a fire, a story untold.
I stood on the precipice, heart filled with strife,
Determined to win and reclaim my own life.
With each passing day, a struggle unseen,
The world carried on, oblivious, serene.
Yet within my mind, a tempest took flight,
A fight that raged on, both day and night.
I stumbled through days, a mere ghost of a man,
Lost in a haze, searching for a plan.
But buried deep within, a flicker of hope,
A resilience that urged me to climb that slope.
I sought solace in whispers of the moon,
And found strength in the embrace of a gentle tune.
Through tear-stained pages, I poured out my soul,
Unveiling my wounds, relinquishing control.
I reached out for hands that offered their light,
Unafraid to share the darkness of my night.
Friends, family, and kindred spirits emerged,
An army of love, their support, a surge.
In therapy's chambers, I learned to untangle,
The webs that depression wove, to dismantle.
A canvas of emotions, colors intertwined,
I painted my truth, the masterpiece of my mind.
I discovered the power of self-compassion,
An anthem of love, an inner resurrection.
In nurturing my spirit, I found a new way,
To mend shattered pieces and seize the day.
The road was winding, strewn with thorns and doubt,
But my spirit grew bolder, dispelling the clouds.
I reclaimed my voice, unshackled my fears,
Embracing the journey, shedding silent tears.
Today, I stand before you, a victor unbowed,
A testament to resilience, I proudly avow.
For in the depths of despair, I found my might,
A young adult male, soaring into the light.
So to every soul battling demons unseen,
Know you're not alone, this fight is not obscene.
You are a warrior, with strength deep within,
And the world needs your light, let it begin.
