My need is not for things of touch.
Not bread, nor sleep, nor wine,
For these are with me ever much -
I sleep, I sup, I dine.
And yet, not sated, still am reaching,
breath on breath for truer being;
for soulful nurture god beseeching.
I grope uncertain..... soul unseeing:
weak perception, numbing sense,
keeping joy from surging high,
making sorrow less intense.
I hunger, yet I do not cry.

I think your poem points out that there are no answers regarding the depressive state. I look forward to reading more of your poetry.
