A Corporate Employee's Meek Shriek

In the concrete jungle where suits abound,

Amid the hustle and the constant sound,

A corporate employee's tale is told,

Of battles fought within, unseen and bold.

In boardrooms filled with high-stress demands,

Where productivity reigns and time expands,

A hidden struggle silently ensues,

As mental health fights to break the news.

Behind the smiles and professional guise,

A whirlwind of emotions often lies,

Anxiety whispers, its voice so loud,

Burdening shoulders, a heavy shroud.

The pressure mounts, expectations soar,

But deep within, cracks begin to score,

The mind, a battlefield of thoughts untamed,

Where mental well-being is often maimed.

Yet amidst the chaos and the corporate strife,

Hope emerges, a beacon in this life,

For the employee finds strength to break free,

To seek solace, healing, and recovery.

In counseling rooms, where vulnerability's embraced,

A safe space exists, where wounds are traced,

A therapist's gentle guidance helps restore,

The shattered fragments, the spirit's core.

Through self-reflection, resilience finds its ground,

The employee's voice, a triumphant sound,

Speaking truth and sharing their hidden pain,

Breaking stigma's chains, a courageous gain.

For mental health is not a weakness, you see,

But a testament to humanity,

A reminder that we all need care,

In the corporate world and everywhere.

So let us foster compassion and understanding,

Create workplaces that are truly outstanding,

Where employees thrive, their minds set free,

Valuing mental health, our true currency.

In this corporate realm, let us unite,

Empathy and support, shining bright,

For in the depths of struggle, we can find,

A path to wellness, a peace of mind.
