When I look at you now,
It causes grief in my heart.
I have a hunch you're not fine.
I can see that your life has altered.
When you smile.
Do you honestly mean that?
I notice you're laughing.
Are you really laughing?
Life has changed you.
Into someone different.
Life has taken the true you away.
Life has captured your mind.
You overthink things.
You're always afraid.
You’re always
Between melancholy and delight.
I think you are depressed.
I believe you need guidance.
Talk to me; I'm here for you.
Feel free, and open your heart.
Do not keep anything to yourself.

181 Keeping Watch
Each day she watched through her window. Watched? Perhaps an exaggeration: a monochromatic nuclear aftermath remaining of the world, blurring into a blindness--loss of contrast and depth of field. Achromatic aberrations displayed a waste-scape stratified in grays.
