Your only young but with so much deep insights
Your only young but such good control upon the words you say
Admire your creativity
Well crafted dear poet
It’s true a poet isn’t determined by age
Good going
Keep sharing

The Tightrope
Paul Bell said:

Depression is the ultimate tightrope, one that comes on without any warning. There are some great medicines now, but real life practice is needed, and writing about it is one way to help yourself and others.

This Feeling

A good expression . Sometimes our minds can feel so tired and so burdened . I have had mental health problems for a while , too … I know it can be difficult . Sorry that you feel this way . It doesn’t seem fair does it , when others are so very happy

This is a tough poem, and many will relate to it. Sometimes it just feels like the world is on your shoulders. There is lots of help now thankfully for depression, writing is definitely one of them. Hope the day gets better.

I understand these feelings you\'re expressing, so bravely
but, the most important thing to remember
is that, it\'s not: his Fault!
instead, it\'s the the fault of those who were intrusted
with the opportunity, to teach him
how to Shine, and in so doing
allow everyone to see him, clearly..
but thankfully, its Never: too late
just like when theirs a power cut
and everything goes dark
we need only find
once candle - of hope
for us to find, the light in our lives
and so, he only needs to stay patient
until that first person, discovers him
then, the brightness
from his relieved heart, will insure
Everyone, will see him with ease...
(thanks for sharing, such a poignantly relatable write)

Because he does not show himself.

Many reasons why this should be mostly attributed to the way he was parented.

As one person who \'did not show himself\' I have slowly gained such strength here on MPS by sharing so much of myself in poetry over the years. There are many kind and understanding friendly poets here on MPS.

Great readable, relateable poetry.
