Mental Health and Love
Poems tackling the complexities of love while navigating mental health struggles can offer comfort and connection.
shadow in the garden of my heart
Annoyances and complex thoughts scatter like thorny trees.
The sun sets, all kinds of doubts,
Do lovers like to go through this darkness?
And I threw away fear with both hands,
Let there be whispers of a brighter day.
A delicate, delicate flower,
Spreads its petals, love sows slowly.
Acceptance blooms, a serene daisy,
Quiet the loud whispers and calm the storm within.
Kindness, sunflower, turn your face to the light,
The burning loneliness, the coolness of the endless night.
The shadow of love does not leave you, does not hide,
Walk beside me, guided by its soft light.
She didn't stop, but held my tired hand and whispered.
So in this garden where darkness once reigned,
Gentle touch brings healing, sunshine and rain.
Together we will move forward stronger than ever,
A gentle hand knocks on the open door of my heart.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
