My life has been all round,
With no perfect destination.
Day by day, I fall into a band,
That's full of imperfections.
Seldom could I understand,
With no interpretation.
Life catches me wherever I go,
Hurts me with its invisible blow,
And restrains me from my Jerusalem ahead.
Now I am left alone on this ground,
Being mentally beaten up,
And my visions, left to be eaten up.
Crawling like a little baby,
Still encamped in my weak thought,
With my whole eyes being dizzy,
I felt this would be my very last.
So I gave in to my fate,
Swiftly, like a baby gazing at a monster's face.
Sad story of life at its lowest ebb eloquently narrated in an insightful poem from the heart. A state of hopelessness is aptly captured in the poem. Thanks for sharing Joseph.

I would like to translate this poem
Thanks Chinedu. It is one of the poems I wrote during the period I was fighting depression.
