Poem -
Bed
I can't get out of bed
Lately, I've been dealing with a problem
A problem that acts as if it were chains
Chains keeping me in bed hours after my eyes wake
A problem that tears the motivation from my veins
A problem
I can't get up with this problem holding me down.
How do I cut the chains?
Do I need bolt cutters?
Bolt cutters that play the role of positivity and support?
But
How do I get then when the problem chains me down?
When I'm immobile?
Helpless?
How do I act without motivation?
I need help.
This isn't just a poem.

Oh Mira I can relate to this so well penned expression on the crippling effects depression can bring. Misery weighs us down. I felt it in every word. I do hope you are alright dear poet. Writing can feel like such a release. I hope that maybe this has aided you to relax those chains. Gain enough length maybe to step out or sit up at least 💗
Thank you Gwen. It took a lot of motivation alone just to get out my laptop and write this. I haven't eaten since yesterday and it's almost 4 pm. Poetry is a good escape, but it only helps to such a degree. Thank you for this.
We are here for you Mira!! Such a powerful and emotional read this one. I have met many poets with similar challenges, some have overcome them, others are still on their journey. I like to think this about life like that, a journey where there will inevitably be hurdles we need to overcome. What makes the difference is who we let into our lives and share our journey with~ Such a smashing read from a talented, up and coming poet. Look forward to reading more of your work~
Thank you max~
