Poetry is my sertraline
To write is to create
a simple pen and paper
is my armour against hate
Music is my xanex
it’s this that ignites a spark
the inspiration that it gives me
is my sword against the dark
Nature is my therapy
the feel of wind and rain
and sounds of birds and bees
equip me for battles in my brain
Love is the most powerful
- Depression’s sworn enemy
more so than any prescription
and there’s plenty inside of me

and sounds of birds and bees
equip me for battles in my brain
Love is the most powerful
- Depression’s sworn enemy
