#LoveIs
Love is
An ally against the monster
That is Depression.
Fighting isolation
To show that loneliness is defeatable,
And although sadness is all-consuming,
She won't be consumed by it alone,
Because the ones she loves are right beside her.
Love is
Knowing that an icy glass of water
And "Everything is going to be okay,"
Is the best remedy for her Anxiety.
Love is
Providing a long-sought-after cure
For her to heal, to grow, to understand
That defeating her monsters is attainable.
Love is
Loving for better or for worse,
Depression or no depression,
Anxiety or no anxiety
Love is
Helping her feel victorious,
Helping her feel whole
For the first time.
