Speak Up

Writer's picture: Mansi KochharMansi Kochhar

This is a poem that I wrote promoting mental health. I believe that happiness is the single most important thing in this entire world, and everyone deserves a shot at a happy and fulfilling life. If you are in any need of help and support I cannot emphasize enough the importance of reaching out to friends, family, or a professional who can help you get through the troubles that you may be facing.

You will get through this, so just hang in there. Please help spread the message. I wish you all peace, love, and happiness.


Speak Up

You can feel your light quickly burning out,

the walls are closing in, shadows all around,

you want to reach out to a helping hand,

but you hug your knees and don’t make a sound.

You think of what people will say

if you let them know you’re not okay,

will they judge you, or leave you, or push you away,

as you grow sadder by the day.

But you need not bottle it up and keep on feeling blue,

and anyone who tells you to do so is not a friend true.

Understand that your happiness is worth so much more

than your image in society or what people think of you.

So even if it feels like you might be going insane

You’re strong and brave and beautiful, get that in your brain

These scars you’ll survive, this nightmare it will end,

And tomorrow the sun will shine, and you’ll learn to laugh again.
