This poem relates to how I felt when I was dealing with deep depression in my past…I hid from everyone and felt alone…some very dark times for me. Writing helped and I wrote every day in my journals through poetry…I know how it feels and know if you feel this way you aren’t alone.
My Depression
Mind it wanders
Thoughts floating
Mind feeling numb
Silence has come
Louder then anyone knows
This silence it does grow
Doubt seems to follow
Silent and hollow
Light seems to fade
As the foundation is laid
Sadness creeps inside
Nowhere to hide
Lay down in a ball
Body does fall
This depression sinks in
How lonely its been
