Mind Over Matter


 
 
Sometimes it feels like a heavy weight,
The struggles and worries that we all face,
But it's important to remember to take a break,
And prioritize our mental health each day.
 
We often forget that our minds need care,
Just like our bodies and physical welfare,
But neglecting it can lead to despair,
Affecting our lives beyond repair.
 
It's okay to not be okay,
To take the time to rest and pray,
To seek help and find a way,
To overcome the battles of the day.
 
So let's speak up and break the stigma,
Of mental health being a vague enigma,
Let's acknowledge its importance and stand with ya,
Together, we can conquer any trauma.
