This is for those
Battling depression
Grappling with anxiety
Struggling to sleep
Trying to keep their chin up
Trying to find the positive
Trying to stay connected
Forging their way through
Who do not tell a soul
How much they are suffering
For a mountain of reasons
Know that you are not alone
Years from now we will all
Have powerful stories to tell
Of making it through this
We are living them now
