Dear Naomi, believe me a second, and forget,
I know what you feel and are dealing,
Questions can be some harassment,
When you live in solitude,
Your successe is overwhelming,
Celebrity can be a wild horse,
People have  to respect that, Naomi,
Playing tennis is a very good thing,
But you know as well, this is not enough,
Love and friendship are more precious.
So, Thank you for just being Naomi.


PS This tennisplayer is so sensitive, I wrote this poem

Yann, You're the best!

What a tender and insightful write! What a thoughtful thing to do. Did you share it with her? Her openness about Depression will help countless people find help and take us one step further away from the mental health stigma. ~L
