Depression Poem by Spiro K

Depression

Rating: 5.0


I guess depression got me
It crawled under my skin
It killed all hope; infected me
Destroyed me from within

Depression's sadness owns me
It runs deep in my veins
It killed the man within me
And left a boy in pain

I'd ask you to forgive me
For what I am about to do
Please sit here and just cry with me
And tell me I love you

I'm waiting for a small sign
To save my empty soul
A heart that would be so kind
To close this bleeding hole

I'm not too good at saying this
By this, I mean goodbye
I know you'll tell me I'll be missed
But my day, has come to die

The devastating effect of depression has been very nicely narrated. The stanza that impressed me is: I'm waiting for a small sign To save my empty soul A heart that would be so kind To close this bleeding hole -A wonderful poem..Congrats..! !

I would say.......Confusion-]Frustration-]Depression- ]Madness. Depression is a disturbed state of our own mind where the person forgets the true sense of I.As it is a phase the person confuses between the reality and imagination.Perhaps the boundary of the conciousness and unconciousness overlaps and the victim becomes meaningless.But if seen at with a different angle, depression comes only to those who once have been elevated in their lives.So one should forget about the present state and should think of his/her elevated times.Times where the world has embraced them.Soon after their depression will become their strength and they'll walk with it as an experience.
