To be honest,

I let myself fall out of love with books, poems and writing because of mental health.

I have realised that we don’t take care of our mental health and we think it is a joke

Parents see it as wanting attention.

If only they knew

We self harm, commit suicide as a cry for help and we are told that we just want attention,

But sometimes, it’s something else

I just wish that parents could understand us and see that we are also human and we also have feelings.
