A Helium Ballon Can\'t Lift A Brick
L. B. Mek said:

I like the honesty, in your lament
but may I suggest
that we don\'t wage wars, armed
with a single bullet
so why must we assume, we can
Fight
depression, with a single option
as our go-to, solution..?
indeed, a single balloon can\'t lift
a brick, but
whoever said, we had to play fair?
so arm yourself, with a dozen balloons
like we all do
have more than one, option
to help ease that feeling
of drowsy heaviness
draping over you
and making you feel, listless..
have a go-to choice of several, feelgood
songs/music
or a sweet treat you save for such emergencies
or a guilty pleasure, fantastically dramatic
tv show, or steamy read
or better yet, a place that makes you feel nature\'s
soothing presence
or a bar, with warm smiles to welcome you
or that friend/kin, who knows
just by the cadence of your sigh
that you\'re going through a tough day
and will try to lift your spirits..
but here\'s the trick
do All of this things, again n again
simultaneously, if need be
don\'t care about \'troubling people\'
or burdening them
just do all that you can, to wage a battle
with that looming, sinking feeling
dogpaddle your way through its
murky waters
till you find, a firm surface
to steady yourself upon..
Fight, every time
and each time, it will get easier
I promise!
do it for you and nobody else
and make it up to everyone
when you can smile, without
feigning..
stay Strong, dear Poet
(please forgive me if my words
come across as being toxic
or demanding..
I only meant to support and encourage)
thanks for sharing

This isn\'t a Poem
L. B. Mek said:

how strange, I\'ve been working
on a similar themed write
for a while now
and it just never feels
like I can get it right
(your words helped me realise
it\'s ok to take my time
and find the poetry, hidden
in my words)
thank you, for choosing to share
dear poet

What is life?
L. B. Mek said:

maybe, is a wonderful word
to include in your final line of introspective poetry,
questioning exactness in our knowing,
is never a weakness, rather
a showcasing of our wisdom\'s, humility..
so write, ramble, ask, hypothesise
struggle, struggle, struggle
with the questions
that matter most to you, in life
and you\'ll likely
find the right answers, unknowingly
maybe...
(thanks for sharing)

What is life?
Kevasha said:

That was beautiful!
Very deep, yet simple.
You made me think...I like that.

I want to be smart
L. B. Mek said:

let me share with you what pitifully feeble wisdom I have managed to glean,
first: learn humility!
and you\'ll insure, not only can you look forward to a life of acquiring endless knowledge
but more importantly,
you\'ll have that unbending spine
to utilise the knowledge you come across, without
being consumed in that vehemence of superiority, or elitist wilful ego,
which inevitably accrues
with every room you enter, knowing
you have a valid and meaningful opinion and contribution
to everything being discussed..
(personally I think there\'s no such thing as knowing too much
or wanting to your reduce your endless ignorance, little by little
its just
our limitations, usually means
we either know a lot about one thing, or a little about everything)
lol
thanks for sharing

Let the Words Flow
L. B. Mek said:

\'Happy thoughts become poems
Bad days become works of art
The depression becomes an inspiration\'
wonderful lines, really like the overall message in your write, especially
how you showcase Poetry\'s capacity
to offer us an avenue for shedding
our concerns, frustrations
and for expressing our personal achievements and thoughts..
a great read, thanks for sharing

It seems the most genuine of people are the ones who are not appreciated as they should be. Well penned Unicorn. 👍

I Fell in Love
Accidental Poet said:

This kind of love is very rare. And you obviously acknowledged that here in the beautiful write Unicorn. 😉

I Fell in Love
L. B. Mek said:

the beginning of this write reminded me of a song by the soulful
Tina Dico, titled \'Glow\', and lyrics are:
\'You were given nothing as a child
Now that\'s a lot to carry
You\'ve been empty-handed all you life
A heavy weight to carry
Things could be different
But it wouldn\'t be the same
You wouldn\'t be the man I love
Without this weight\'
(thanks for sharing,
this reads like an intimate and sincere dedication)
