I feel like this everyday. Wallahi, I may look like I got everything figured out but I dont know. I smile and look happy but I aint. I hide feelings of anger, sadness, and mourning underneath faulty personas. This spoken word piece I know what it feels like. Yes I am Muslim but that aint a cure. Instead, it makes things worse because you learn obligations. Struggle does not sit at the roadside, instead; life becomes harder. I know the feeling. I see it in childrens faces who hide pain. Young kids who hear father and mother arguing about divorce. Feelings of abuse and rape when a woman gets mugged walking home. Afraid to tell people because she will be blamed for dressing like a hoe. Nothing worse then people replying It will get better. Depression cannot be reduced by someone saying what we already know to be false. The only thing that can help is having people around you who will listen, be their for you, and those who will never give up even if it isnt fun being around the person who feels like £hit. I know this feeling, been their, done that, still their. Only difference I struggle, I write everything done, I make it so everyone knows what is going on it my head, I dont hide emotions. I tell it like it is. But not everyone is like that. Society needs to stop asking, Are you alright? How is your day? If you are going to ask these questions, mean them otherwise shut up. Reason why depression is such a epidemic is because society has created a cancer of people who dont care. That is why I am starting the campaign #Icare for anyone who is depressed or anyone who wants to become a lifesaver for someone else. Start caring for people around you. Wallahi lives are saved one at a time... https://youtube/watch?v=UJyZW2IMr0w
