Poems With Meaning

Physical Pain or Emotional Pain?

Do you prefer physical

Or do you rather emotional

As the type of pain you feel

All Pain is normal

But when one inflicts their own

It does not go down too well

People will think you're crazy

And which they could be right

But do not let this hold you back

There's still a way to turn around

I know, I've done it before

I have seen the light, but can you?

Let your friends take your hands

And guide you to the tunnel

This is where you'll see a way

A way to go home, to a new beginning

I won't grow old, living a life in pain

I will try to make an effort

To leave that life behind

There is nothing for you here, if you inflict pain

Most like you cut themselves

Or worse, they like the physical pain

It takes the emotional pain away. So call you friends

They know you pain and they will help

Doctors will call you crazy

When truly you're not

It is just a lie they tell

So do not trust the men in white

But instead the boys in blue

You say you see an angel

But you are just fantasying

Wishing they could carry you away

I wall not call you mad

Or insecure of words like that

Those words are all lies

No human fits in that list

Because….not one is unhinged

This poem is to alert people about depression and anxiety. Some people are called different, crazy, delusional and it gets to them. They believe what is said about them. Sometimes they go into deep depression and have to go to counselling. Some people are rather lucky to have friends who care about them, and, like me, managed to get through it without having to go to a counsellor. Just because people are different doesn't mean that they are crazy or delusional, thy are special. Everyone is special.
