Sometimes clouds of sadness can form in our minds
Sometimes thunders of fears will blast through it
As Will lights to die in an ill lightning
When you reach that point
…SPEAK OUT
II
If you don’t
The sadness will rain down your inner
…and flood your body
Drowning your soul and killing your spirit
Leaving no room for your body to survive
So please do the needful
…SPEAK OUT
III
There is nothing unsolvable
There is nothing beyond human
There is no problem shared unheard
And fallibility includes vulnerability
So SPEAK OUT
By all means REACH OUT
Do your best to LET OUT
Any depression suppressing your expression
And forcing an impression of a no way out
IV
You are more than you think capable
So share a problem
…to offload
So you can be lighter to walk
…until you reach life’s final destination
…gracefully

Love your use of metaphors.
Your poem is so essential and thoughtful. There are people depressed, going through a whole lot but they remain silent. It’s no weakness to reach or speak out rather it’s a sign of strength.
Love the poem💚

Such an important topic, Cecilia 🙂
I think, that many depressions could be helped better, if people had someone trusted to talk to and with.

This was something very different and yet perfectly related to. The choice of words and metaphors is wonderful and makes everything seem so realistic. The way women in this society are treated and grief-stricken is completely and beautifully portrayed. I could feel my eyes moisten while reading some lines. What a masterpiece!! Kudos to you!!
