Poems About Mental Health
Poem 1: “Silent Screams”
The screams in my head,
Are silent to the world,
No one knows the turmoil,
That constantly swirls.
The weight on my chest,
Is heavy and real,
But I put on a brave face,
And try to conceal.
The pain in my heart,
Is a constant ache,
But I push it away,
For fear of being weak.
Poem 2: “The Mask”
I wear a mask every day,
A facade for the world to see,
But inside I’m falling apart,
A broken version of me.
I smile and laugh,
And go through the motions,
But my mind is in chaos,
And my heart is in commotion.
I hide my true self,
For fear of being judged,
But the mask is suffocating,
And my soul is being smudged.
Poem 3: “Shadows”
The shadows follow me,
Everywhere I go,
Reminding me of my past,
And the pain I know.
They lurk in the corners,
Of my mind and my heart,
Tugging at my memories,
Tearing me apart.
I try to shake them off,
To escape their grasp,
But they cling to me tightly,
Like a never-ending clasp.
Poem 4: “Hope”
In the darkest of times,
When all seems lost,
I hold onto hope,
Like a lifeline tossed.
I know that the pain,
Will eventually subside,
And the shadows will fade,
As the light begins to shine.
I’ll keep holding on,
To that glimmer of hope,
For a brighter tomorrow,
And a way for me to cope.
Poem 5: “The Mind’s Abyss”
Deep in the mind, a hidden abyss,
A place of pain, a place of bliss.
A war rages on, within the brain,
A constant battle, with no refrain.
The thoughts are loud, and hard to tame,
A never-ending cycle, of guilt and shame.
But there’s a way out, a path to peace,
A chance to find release.
Poem 6: “The Weight of the World”
The weight of the world, on shoulders frail,
A burden too heavy, to bear without fail.
The mind races, with thoughts of fear,
A constant nagging, that won’t disappear.
The heart aches, with sorrow and pain,
A feeling of hopelessness, that will never wane.
But hold on tight, and take a deep breath,
For there’s still a chance, for a life of rest.
Poem 7: “Silent Screams”
The screams are silent, but the pain is real,
A hurt that’s buried, deep inside the soul.
The tears fall down, but no one can hear,
A cry for help, that falls on deaf ears.
The darkness closes in, and the mind starts to spin,
A descent into madness, that seems to begin.
But there’s always hope, and a chance to be free,
To find the light, and let the healing begin.
