Press on

Uncategorized 1 Minute

Stone presses on chest

Movement an impossibility

Add a few more if you want

Motivation an impossibility

 

I pour from bed

A horrible mess on the floor

I look in the mirror

A horrible mess in all regards

 

I must practice kindness

You’re trying your best

Give leeway on hard days

You’re trying like all the rest

 

I’m still standing

I’m not done yet

It’s a battle

I’m not dead yet

    1. The good news is that it does let up eventually. Even major depressive spells don’t last forever. (Especially if you can squeeze out enough energy to take things to alleviate the chemical side of the depression.)
