PTSD #MentalHealth #MyFriendAlexa



Prisons
the ones
without walls

Life-sentences
come as nightmares

Reliving the pain
the loops 
in the mind's terrain

Trauma has a future
a continuous refrain
the murmurs of a restless brain

    prisons without wall says a lot.
    trauma, depression is like a closed room and negatively affect a human.
    Loving your mental health series
    And glad you came up with this topic so people can discuss it openly.

    A mental health problem like depression puts a human being inside a prison with no walls. Very profoundly meaningful.

    Nothing worse than reliving nightmares! Poignant poetry that brings out the pathos in such few words.
