Will Anyone?
by Steven Bates 8 Jun 2022
Will Anyone read this?
Will anyone care?
Will anyone post this?
Will anyone share?
Are there any reasons
To pour out my soul,
To show the vast legions
the shattered, gaping hole?
The pit that once held
The joy of my world
Now seems to meld
With pain and loss, swirled
But the one hope I pray
Is that others may read
And know when I say
It does plant a seed.
That others are like me
and they too can survive
not only PTSD
but even with depression can thrive
It's not a death sentence
If we fight for our life
Don't pay the penance
Don't give in to the strife
Make each moment precious
Count each blessing your way
Make hope infectious
And have a GREAT DAY!
