The last day of darkness
Depression, stress, and anxiety are killing me.
It is gross.
I heard a voice screaming in my head that SUICIDE was the answer to all of my problems.
It's stock in my head,
My mind always reminds it
It tore me apart and it sucked.
But when I am with you,
I feel new.
I feel revitalized.
I always laugh. Did I laugh?
Am I laughing?
Is this a joke?
Asking myself in front of the mirror
How bright I am when I am with you.
How happy I am to live this brighter life.
Down, down, down into the brighter future.
Gently it goes. It rises early.
My laugh blooms perfectly.
About this poem
This poem that I am publishing is all about killing sadness by being yourself. Remember that being yourself does not make you lonely; instead, you make yourself perfect, just like flowers.
