Battling the big “D”
Smile on your face as we walk the weary path
You don’t reveal the angst and pain
Subdued by duty and shame
Depression and panic attacks may not stop in pill popping sprees
Family, friends and cohesive surroundings make a difference
Don’t shun the one who stood by you
It’s a mental state that sets in
when u try to figure it out, u sink deep in
Day and night don’t seem to matter
Memories fade and thoughts scatter
U live a life not knowing your worth and feel best not to live
U go away, that’s when it hits hard
of knowing what u had been suffering
Too late for u but not so,for many like u
If only we stood by u, we wouldn’t have lost u
Don’t let someone else go over it once again
Deep down however guilt ridden we may feel
For not understanding your pain
Ur death will remind us that a mind has issues...too
