Miriam's Poems 🫶🏼

I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety for as long as I could remember,

These feelings I feel is very hard to describe

At times these emotions are too much to the point where I can’t pull myself together,

Feeling what I feel kills you inside.

With depression I constantly feel sad,

All I do is cry

With anxiety I feel a mix of many emotions but I mainly feel mad,

All these emotions are slowly killing me and makes me want to die.

Anxiety makes me overthink every little thing,

It makes me very insecure

You have no idea what sadness and loneliness it brings,

A lot of times I wish for these struggles to be a quick cure.

I constantly live in fear,

In fear of when I’ll take my last breath

These struggles don’t make life clear,

Patiently waiting to have my slow dance with death.

I can’t wait for this pain to be gone,

But I’ve dealt with this pain for many years

So you know what … Bring It On !!!

Cause at the end of the day I’ll have the last laugh and I’ll have the loudest cheer.
