Mental illness

The worst part of having a mental illness
is that the illness is invisible to everyone
the people who are close to you heart cannot see
the battle that you are fighting from within,
the worst part about having a mentall illness is
that people except you to behave as you don’t
have anything wrong,
today I feel like a plant that’s wilting, like
someone left crying, I felt breathless and tired in my core
I wrap my hands around myself, it’s only through
Poetry I can tell you how i feel, i never wanted it, never
asked for it , I know i will never recover from it, there
would not be a cure in my life time, if mental illness
was simple , I would not be struggling with it in the first
place, am glad that I have found true friends and
peace within my heart,
