Don'T We All Need Help... Poem by shweta advani

Don'T We All Need Help...

Rating: 5.0


I met him for the first time
n he told me that
he is not happy with his life
n is being treated for depression..
I was taken aback
I was wondering what did his
life lack..

He had everything..
a young guy cud ask for...
but he had no answer
what was it that he needed more..

I wondered how this demon attacks
even the young lads...
But I got the answer
when I had to visit the doc
to be cured of the same demon...

It's then when I realised
we never know
what strikes whom n when...
We play different roles at different times
N we all need help...

No we, all don't need help. If ever we need help it is the help of the God. There is existential depression and there is no cure for it, except to achieve Nirvana........A Good Write...........
