Alive

Poetry is my favorite emotional outlet. When I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety, poetry became the easiest way for me to explain my feelings and what was going on inside my head. Poetry gives you a unique insight into other people's minds and it helps you to understand them. That's why I write poetry- the world could definitely use a little more understanding.
(Just in case anyone gets worried- please don't. I have a good support system and have gotten help for my problems. If there is poetry in here that references things related to depression, it's my feelings, not my actions. I am okay.)
