Under the Surface Mental Health And Anxiety
They don’t see the weight I carry
how quiet it presses on my bones
Not loud, not crying out
just a dark tide pulling under
I don’t ask for light
don’t look for saving hands
I hold the storm inside
tight and cold
waiting for no one
This is the silence that screams
the heavy pause between breaths
where strength isn’t loud
but carved in stone
unmoving, unbroken
No soft words soften this shape
no easy roads lead through
Only the hard ground beneath my feet
and the cold sky above
I walk alone in this space
where shadows gather like old truths
And I carry the weight of the world
without breaking or bending
But beneath this stone wall
the cracks start to show
The quiet grows louder
a voice without a face
It speaks in restless nights
in hands that tremble unseen
in smiles forced and fading
in battles fought alone
Strength isn’t only stone
sometimes it’s asking for air
holding on when the silence
threatens to swallow whole
This weight is real and heavy
but so is the fight inside
and even the darkest tides
can learn to ebb and flow.

Thankyou for bringing this to 'people's' attention. It is something I know very well and it's nice to know I am not alone xx
I know this feelings to well. And yet you show up and write stories everyday. You are amazing woman. I am doing a 30 day challenge, where I have to write a 50,000.00 words story in 30 days.
Thank you for highlighting, and these are not easy for anyone suffering. Sending support and hugs
