Have you already drowned?

If yes, how can you save yourself?

A lot of us experienced of being drowned by our own thoughts. It’s excruciating since it feels like there’s no one beside you at that time. You were gasping an air just like how you badly need an atention from them. But in the end, no one can save you but only yourself.

You will only know once you stopped thinking deeply about the thing you should not worry for.


Drowned

by Marigrace D. Carretero

1 The stone feel

2 Into the deep well

3 It gasped for breath

4 As its tough fall.

5 Have you ever felt that?

6 When you lost hope?

7 Drowned in a spring that overflows

8 Beside the falls that's really cold.

9 Don't be sad

10 For though you're in the situation,

11 Someone will draw water in a little while,

12 Someone will help you.

13 Hold on as the pall falls

14 So you can breathe after drowning in the deep

WHY I LIKED THE POEM?

The poem motivates people, a struggling one to be exact. I like how it inspire everyone of us. It’s just a poem but it brings deeper than that. It’s an eye-opener for all, saying that whatever you’ve gotten yourself, never lose hope and always look at the bright side.

It was not easy to ignore sadness as it said in the poem yet in the end of it, it brings a reason to happen. That one day, someone will be there for you to save yourself from drowning.

It may not happen as soon as possible but this will be the time where only you can dive in that.


WHAT I FELT TOWARDS THE POEM

As a teenager, depression is always present in times of like this. This poem gives me a reason to hope and not to surrender in life. It motivates me to go on with my life. That everything will be okay when the time comes. It’s like a seasonal pattern because after this dim life, a new bright future will come and we are all rooting for that, aren’t we?

Because this poem proves to us that we may have a weak mind when it comes to ourselves, on the other side of our thoughts… we are always hoping for the best for us.


CURRENT SITUATION

COVID-19 brought us a lot of pain in our life. It takes our freedom away, and lockdown was all over our place. It’s like a cage and we cannot do anything. Fear and worry consumed us and mostly, depression becomes more alarming.

Covid are still spreading. What we can do is to behave ourselves and support all the frontliners who are risking their life for us. If we are too broke at this moment, how about them? Instead of enjoying with their family, they are fighting to Covid for our safety.

This prove us that we are not alone in this battle. Someone is helping us not to be drown on something, enough reason for us to continue with our life.

All the hard times will pass, future will be bright as the sun will shine.

– be hopeful for the every upcoming days –
