• • • • • Watching from afar has become my new way of life. Watching my friends be happy, watching my peers live in a blissful ignorance, and watching my family watch me wither away. Being diagnosed with cancer was a painful punch to the gut, a wake up call I didn't think I needed. And as I watched my family crumble apart under the weight of my sickness, I made the decision that nobody else would ever know. So my cancer is my secret, it's locked away in so many vaults that nobody will ever be able to reach it. Not even Zach Dawson.

These are my thoughts in verses, the heaviness of depression and anxiety lie on me. It is uncensored; it is raw; it is who I am, the darkness that overshadows my mind. I present it to you both shyly and aspiring that there are, perhaps, others who feel the same. Anxiety and depression are not light loads to carry, and if you have any memories evoked by these words, I am sorry. However, I suppose that this darkness should be shared; that telling our stories is the only redemptive way. And there is mine, a little ray of my soul dressed in poetry. May it serve as a reminder that you are not alone in your journey, and that there is always hope, even in the darkest of moments.
