REAL TALK in DEPRESSION AND SUICIDE be the reason someone chooses to stay

THE LANTERNS IN THE FOG

What used to sparkle now flickers dim,
Joy once danced—now it forgets to begin.
The laughter’s gone, the silence loud,
I wear my smile like a burial shroud.

Tired bones in a restless skin,
Scared of the dark I carry within.
Unloved, unheard, a ghost in the crowd,
Screaming in whispers, never too proud.

But somewhere out there, a soul might sway,
On the edge of night, begging for day.
So I pen this pain, not just for me—
But for the ones who ache silently.

Let this be the spark, the ember, the flame,
A reason to stay, not just a name.
Join the circle, break the chain,
Let tears be rivers that cleanse the pain.

We are lanterns in the fog,
Flickering, yes—but never gone.
And if you see this light, hold tight—
You are the reason someone might fight.
