Beautiful words, @raj808. I will admit to having my own struggles over the years. (Thankfully doing fantastic now!) But it’s so difficult to describe, to find words that resonate and capture the essence of that dynamic duo — depression and anxiety — without cheapening its impact or diminishing how painful It can be. I don’t think I have ever succeeded at it. But I think you did here in this poem.
I have no words jayna... thank you. I take it to be a true endorsement of a poem when a writer of your quality appreciates one of my poems.
Economy of words is so important in poetry and I'm trying to find that economy with these short poems in this series.
Thanks again and I'm glad you enjoyed the poem, and that you're not effected by mental health struggles anymore 🙂
