Strong Enough

Strong Enough

A Poem by Kasey Nichole

Lately I've been struggling, drowning
My smile has faded, constantly frowning.
People keep laughing, the world keeps spinning
I'm caught in my own mistakes, sinning. 

I will get better, I will forget the pain
I am strong enough, no longer myself to blame.

It's a reoccurring thing, it is 
Depression hurts, but you keep smiling, an act... it's show biz.
Every day becomes a struggle, to keep yourself from slipping
Slipping under the waters rough currents of life, forever dripping
Dripping tears of sadness and grief, constant lies, 
they always fly.
"I'm fine, just tired."
And no one says "i'm uninspired."

I will get better, I will forget the pain
I am strong enough, no longer myself to blame. 

I'm getting help, 
I'm breaking free,
It is finally time, to just be me.

All I can say is... i'm ready to get help.

All of us struggle.
"I will get better, I will forget the pain
I am strong enough, no longer myself to blame."
I tell people. Get-up and go forward. Learn from regret and mistakes. Become wiser and stronger. I liked the flow of thoughts leading to the logical ending. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Painfully relatable. Seems to be a theme for you? Anyways, I liked it. It took me a second to find the "beat" to it, but I definitely found it. I look forward to more.
