Framed canvas of broken heart
Tears of endless grief in darkness
Paints and brushes made scars
The still silhouette never seen far
Eyes of admirer from a distance
Loneliness revised the history
Lines and dots , tangles and knots
When it is you , I can forget not
Resemblance in moonlight
Lingering words bring delight
Pictures of hope and wish
A broken heart turns into art
Bismillah . Assalamualaikum
Last Tuesday , I attended my doctor's appointment as usual . While I was waiting for my turn , I noticed something heartwarming . This wasn't my first time seeing it . I just felt deeper about it at that moment .
All this time , I had seen patients were accompanied by family members and friends many times . Sometimes I could hear persons at behind had friendly or casual conversation . There were kids with them too .
Seeing this moment , I heard my inner self said , " Isn't that beautiful ? " Indeed , it was . It was beautiful that those patients were supported by their closed ones as needed and supposed event though as simple as show up and be there .
I had my best friend showed up with me to attend my first few doctor's appointments . Her presence was very helpful , stronger than the tension I felt and carried during those difficult times . We talked less while waiting but just be there .
It is said that family support matters for mentally ill patients . Even though I had long ago dropped this idea , it's undeniable that there are many patients who really need their family and closed ones support . Yes , as simple as show up and be there .
Show up may be verbal and non verbal .
