Rears its head

November 12, 2015

Depression is an ugly monster

hiding under my bed

waiting to devour my soul

trying in vain to enter my

neutral state-of-being

and engulf my tides of psyche

flood my mind with negative thoughts

make me delve further into myself

until I'm a different breed altogether;

I'm washed out

reeling from the aftershock

churning with doubt

until I write

ink stains my fingertips

until I release my emotions

I dwell on my weaknesses.

Depression is hard to deal with, it's even harder to LIVE with.
