it's ok you can't get out of bed
it's ok you can't express the shades of dispair
it's ok there's always help
be brave
I have my semicolon tattooed on my flesh
it's my "remember you are right to exist"
you're far from weak
you can get over
mountains
medications aren't a cure
but never trying isn't either
please note I'm an ally
my life is an opus of tears
with lots of effort and meds
I found strength to get out of bed
are you ready?
say the words
you're not lonely cause I'm here
been there done that
the bought T-Shirt is the scars and mental wounds I wear
never again to be subject to the aural black
once again I ask
do you need help getting out of the dark
