Everywhere I go, I will say Hello

Hi, red-headed man with a poetry book!
Hi, big-eyed, drooling baby!
Hi, hard-working and talented cook!
Hi, tiny, wildly-dressed lady!

I am Ally Danlag,
A random girl you will never meet again.
But if I can make you smile,
Then I, personally, have achieved Zen.

Hello, dark-clothed and long-haired teenager!
Hello, motherly, wise professor!
Hello mismatched and misjudged stranger!
Hello angry, lonely aggressor!

Some of you may wonder
Why I say hello
Seemingly out of nowhere
Yet with a certain glow.

Because I have been on the other side
Where no one said hello
And that lonely place
I will not let anybody go.

Depression is like no other.
Helplessness, darkness, hopelessness and MORE.
Every day I avoid getting smothered
By embracing my friendly, outgoing core.

So here is to the people
Who think they are alone.
My name is Ally Danlag
I will save you from that destructive cyclone, the scary, big unknown.

My name is Ally Danlag;
You will never hear from me again.
So here is a quick, “Hello!”
To all children teenagers women workers men.
