Title: Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
I tried to think about tomorrow,
But my depression couldn't,
Let me think about that no more,
Tests from school I forgot,
A result of too much pressure,
From peers and their judgement,
Things so tender, like shear butter,
And love from mother,
I gradually forewent,
While depression & stress swept over,
All too vivid from heartbreak,
And that's all I knew,
Can you feel how,
I came so close to my destruction?
Nearly forgot my name is Stallion!
I tried to unravel the mystery of life, Walking in the allure of nature,
A lone soul thinking of salvation,
But bombarded by luck and fate,
I was pulled back by suicidal pain,
Time flew and clarity descended,
The mind thought of soldiering on,
But I can't do this alone!
Oh mine dear friend,
I implore you,
To this pain myself I sent, yes!
Though stand with me,walk with me,
Together! You'll make me stronger,
And death will not delude me,
I have grown wiser, yes?
Aid I to live longer my dear,
When tomorrow comes,
With you for sure I will stand!

Stallion the persona in this poem depicts the struggles people go through with depression and mental health challanges.
The piece also depics the persona's plea to friends to come to his aid through support in order to see him through recovery.
This piece emphasizes the challenges leading to, as well as mental health challenges and the significance of family and friends support in overcoming mental health challenges.
