This makes me so sad. It’s so hard sometimes to realize how much each of us matters. We’re all individuals and we all have something to offer that no one else has. I just saw a video of Stephen Colbert talking about his depression when he was in college and how a friend told him “you are enough” and what a difference that made. It’s true! I wish that we could all realize how important we are to ourselves and others. Therell, I’m glad you use poetry as a coping mechanism. I’m so sorry you feel so alone and forgettable. I know people will appreciate you and enjoy you when they can spend enough time with you. Love and friendship is out there! the pandemic has made things so hard but it’s going to get better.
