Dear Friend

A poem about mental health

I wish you ask me how I’m doing, Don't avoid knowing the tough details, I know that it becomes your burden to bear, Let me lean on you when times are difficult.

I wish you open up and tell me how you are really feeling, Don't shut me out and let me be a shoulder you can lean on, I know how hard it is figuring out your own dark thoughts, Let me be your light and help you see the way out.

I wish we ask each other how we really feel, Let's open up and talk before it’s all too late, I know how challenging life is right now, Let me tell you it's okay not to be okay.
