I’m lost in the world,
Scared to death,
Problems making me whirled,
I’m holding my breath.
I’m a lost human, can’t find my way,
Lost as a girl, as a woman,
Struggling each and every day,
I want to find peace, if I can.
I’m lost in my own confusion,
Lost to humanity, lost to love.
Is it my illusion?
That I don’t feel free like a dove!
I lost my smile,
To come back it may take a while,
Lost in the crowd all alone,
Reality of life is what I’m shown.
I lost memories in mind,
Lost my family,lost my soul
Left me confined,
With a heart hole.
Lost in my own emotion,
I don’t know what to say!
Having faith is my notion,
I left my frustrations at bay.
I think I lost myself,
When I lost my hope,
But I need to make a name for self,
Even if with anxiety and stress I’ve to cope!
I lost my sleep,
In my thoughts so deep,
Blessings is what I want to receive
A lot in life I need to achieve!
-Ava Tripathy.

SMiLes Kindest People in Life Are Often
That Way For the Darkness They Experience
In Their Life For the Nurture They Give Others
As Darkness Will Surely Make Us More Sensitive
To the Feelings of Others Understanding the Depth
Of Grey Scale Life One May Move Into so Far
Away From Vibrant Colors To Feel And
Sense As Kind As You Are And
With Such A Bright
Smile in Your
Photo As You Do
So Aptly Capture The Experience
Of Depression In Your Words as i Have
Surely tasted the Darkness in Fact Driving
Me to All These Words Leaving Darkness Behind
Now For 88 Months As Art Surely Colors My Soul
In Dance And Song Flowing Free In Fact
i Was Just listening to a Talk On
Healing Depression
With Art Therapy
So If You Do Experience
These Challenges You are Wonderfully
Still On A Correct Path for Healing Expressing
Your Challenges Allowing Others to Freely Support
You This Way Many Folks Experience Depression
In Their College Years And Science Shows
Your Generation Z at 18 Years-old
Is Experiencing Stress
And the Depression
That Comes
From Stress
Greater than Any Other
Generation Yet.. The World
Is Surely Moving at a Fast Pace
Yet the Art of Your Soul You Share
With Others Does Endure And Light
The World With Your Feelings And If these
Are Your Challenges It is Great at Least Folks
Are More Accepting of these Shared Challenges
For Providing Support As Yes So Many other Folks
Are In This Place of Challenge That You Cover So Well
As i’ve
Surely
Experienced
All These Challenges
In Life A Greatest Gift
Of Life Is Change and Like
My Mother Once Told me This too
Will Pass i had lost my Hope And Did Not
Believe Her Yet She Still Stood By my Side
And It’s True When my Friends Get Depressed
i Will always be there
For them even
When They Feel
They Are Worthy
Of No Love or Support
in Life and Only A Burden
To Others The Blessing of
Darkness Indeed often What it
Takes to be The Last Friend Standing
For Others When They Need Most A Hand Remaining
A Voice Of Kindness True Much of My Light Comes From
An Original Place of Darkness Then As True Without that
Darkness It’s Unlikely i would have ever Written At All
Gaining an
Opportunity
To Meet
Kind and
Creative People
Like You All Around the
Globe And Yes You are my
First Generation Z Poetry Friend
Smiles as A Public Dancer though
I surely have Danced With Folks 4 Decades
Younger In Generation Z Yet In Dance Rarely
is Any Conversation Relayed Haha some
Folks Were Surprised That i could
Talk At All And Others Were
Blown Away
With
How
Fast And
So Much That
Came Out At Once
With Smiles Sort of Like
A Hurricane it seems hehe..
i Guess
Like
This With SMiLes
Yet Really it’s safe to
Say i am a King of Pain
Before i Become A Lover oF LiGHT
As The Air Force Psychiatrist Who
Took Care of me After 11 Years of
Chronic And Acute Stress Just Tore
Me Down to Nothing Said i was His
Most Challenging Case Ever Through
All the Military Combat Fatigue Cases He Saw
But i was only A Federal Employee Always the
One Folks Said Could Handle The Stress Best with
A Smile on my Face But They Couldn’t See My Soul Suffocating within
Smiles You
Always Have
A Friend on
This End
In Thick
And Thin
As Long as You
Come Around on Friday
Night As Friendship surely
Includes No Barriers of Differences..:)

Reading this was of great help actually
Now I really feel from heart that feeling depressed sometimes is okay and others feel it too.
Thank you so much sir for sharing your personal experience. Helped me a lot to understand that everyone has their own bad time, and as your mother said I will always remember “this shall pass away too”

You have a natural talent to open your heart and soul to create such incredible poems Ava!! I used to live in the heart of the western most rocky mountains on the west coast of Canada. The white peaks poking through once the clouds or mists of fog disappeared were so stunning. I miss the show they put on. My heart is in my chest but my soul is still tied to those mountains.
