For Those Finding Their Way

Every day a new challenge arises.
No one can see the pain since they are blinded.
How long will it take to notice the crisis?
Too long, for they are all simpleminded.

Nothing can numb the unfortunate feeling
That is born from a self-destructive heart.
Someone is looking up to the soft ceiling
For the last time and their life is torn apart.

There is only one remedy for darkness.
To free the mind from every vanity,
One must avoid the myths of Loch Ness .
See reality, expel insanity

Take flight in the world to find peace in the mind.
Heed beauty in nature and warmth you will find.

This poem was inspired by personal events, my depression, and how I overcame it.
