depression

What destroys me is hearing about my friend's depression not because it's a burden oh no not because it weighs on me too but I see my friend as a hero as having it all together Having all the success and the things having achieved the daily self control to do the habits to get to her goals and her depression makes me feel uneasy If I could hold a mirror up maybe she could see how wonderful she is but I have no mirror So what do I have? my words. Can I use my words to heal her heart? my greatest desire. is to live free of depression.

Post-Goal Poem

It's been ages since I've thought about them, these words After a big project I dive deep and deeper into the dark depths of what's next and what if I can never do better than that? stop go. Stop go. Hurry up and wait. This space feels like everything I fear closed, judgmental, and alone I think back only a few months ago I was open and thriving and connected. Now, here I am alone. As happiness evades, my routine crumbles slowly and I stand In the wake of my destruction knowing it's time to clean house to move again into a routine and to make time for me. If I can feel deeply proud of achieving, I can feel the deep shame of not. So, standing taking stock seems so trivial But we need to recover our energies just as much as we need to use them.
