I Almost Let Go
The pain was too much to bear
Heartache, worries and despair
Loneliness about me, contracted into a span
And left me far more lost than Peter Pan
But I rose from the ashes
As the sky around me darkened
I picked myself, making patches
watching my hope as they brightened
Now standing right here so
I wonder why I almost let go.
it's 12am in the morning and here i sit writing a poem. It's been a while since i posted a poem and just felt i should write one right now. This poem really illustrate my state of mind and how hopeful i feel right now. All my depression and loneliness seems to be fading away and what i feel now is hope. A lot f hope for better things to come! I think I;m on the verge of a breakthrough or something but whatever it is i know it's something special
Your favourite teenager,

@ajremy I like this one. Very relatable. I find myself writing in the middle of the night as well
Its nice to know I'm not alone.. lol
This is a very powerful poem. As someone who's also step by step recovering from depression, I understand the feeling of wanting to surrender many times. But I see the position in where I'm standing now in my life and I feel grateful of holding myself together.
The future will be brigth as you said. Best of luck!
