Poem -
Adolesence depression
Awake,
Distearate,
Can you feel it Inside your mind,
So many moments lost in time,
Depression,
Regression,
The feeling of standing still in rewind,
Manipulated,
Memories,
Managing,
Miserably,
Playing on rerun,
In hindsight,
While the boat drifts downstream,
Confusion is Mandatory,
If their lucky enough to not be in a catatonic state,
Spoken words enter the backdoor,
The thought process somewhat obscure,
Trickling meaninglessly into a puddle on the floor,
Hopelessly holding a pitcher full of holes,
Major,
Depressive,
Disorder,
Rippling through their souls,
Countless hours,
Therapy a clock,
Ticking away,
As the disease drains our hearts grey.
