Time has corroded me
I was being crushed by anxiety like the waves crashing agaisnt the rocks on the coast of the sea,
Slowly over time it has corroded me.
Like a battery left in the remote being drained by the constant use,
I'm taken for granted and broken down by the constant abuse.
Like the faded welcome matt on your doorstep,
I'm worn down and covered in scars from the dammage caused by every step.
Like the nail from your unfinshed project covered in rust and burried in the dirt,
If there is no physical dammage then you can't see the hurt.

The syllabic harmony counterpoints the gravitas of the write very well. I love how you unabashedly pour from heart onto the page.
Thank you all so much for all the positivity even though it's a dark subject it can often create something beautifully inspiring. <3

Dear M,
“Like the faded welcome matt on your doorstep,
I'm worn down and covered in scars from the dammage caused by every step. ” couldn’t have said it better or more succinctly. These feelings of depression and anxiety are indeed very difficult discussions to have. Your courage to speak to them and in such a relatable and honest manner makes me feel a little less isolated. You have a great gift for this. H🌷
