Spiraling out of control
My reality has shifted
Buckling beneath me
As I watch all of my thoughts
Stream down my face
I can feel the shame
Disgrace in your eyes
You ask if I’m okay?
But I can’t hear you
With all the static in my ears
Why can’t I make myself clear?
Hello Steem Fam!
The poem I wanted to share today was inspired by my mental illness... I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder this summer and for me the only real way I learned to cope with it was by writing. So this poem just explains the way I sometimes feel, hence the static sounds and shame that I talk about. I want to be able to shed light and help anyone else in the community going through mental illness.
Thank you for your love and support on my poetry, it really means so much to me!!!
XO,
Sammy-Marie
