Surrender
Nora Elrayes 1986 (Illinois)
“In the shadows of my mind, depression takes hold,
A relentless battle, a story yet untold.
But in the depths of despair, I raise a white flag,
Surrendering to the darkness, my heart beginning to sag.
With heavy steps, I navigate this weary land,
Searching for solace, longing for a helping hand.
Depression's weight, an anchor upon my soul,
Dragging me deeper, taking its toll.”
