Depression - Κατάθλιψη Poem by Kostas Lagos

Depression - Κατάθλιψη

Rating: 5.0


Come and bite me

you venomous serpent

Pour your precious poison

into my veins and

capture my soul



Έλα και δάγκωσέ με

ιοβόλο ερπετό

Ρίξε το πολύτιμο φαρμάκι σου

στις φλέβες μου και

αιχμαλώτισε την ψυχή μου

Indeed it is though time to go through but not an impossible one. Just go on one more leap so that miracle happen. Fight it man. It can be fought.

Facing the depression bravely. A great write. Lets not give in to depression. Lets take it head on. We can defeat it. Lets not try and escape it, lets face it. Well penned.

Yes, poison from the serpents tongue, causing one to come undone! I’m sure in the Greek this takes on a deeper meaning, for so many English words are overlooked by the root meanings offered in Greek, either way, great poem! !
