Bloom like a flower
Who knows she would
Wither tomorrow anyway.
Go out of that comfort zone
Like pupa that re-enters the world again
Like a butterfly –
Gracefully ignorant of his
Stunning colourful beauty
Save for yourself
Like that tiny ant
Whose size doesn’t matter-
She can carry the weight, anyway
Be anything but a human –
He is always chained to his past.
Just live for today – for,
Tomorrow is again, another today.
Dr Sujoya Datta (Susie WP) is currently working as a COVID doctor. In relation to recent events, she hopes to spread more awareness on mental health. Depression is a disease that can be fought. So do not fight alone – seek help from your close one’s and doctors. To those who might be knowing someone suffering – guide them right – make sure they get the medical attention they need. Mental health is equivalent and the same as your physical health. She hopes she has been able to contribute to this awareness through poetry.
