Depression is a complex thing. It is a serious matter that should be given attention. This poem is dedicated to share how depression feels like. A poem made by a friend of mine, Catherine Ortega.
Maybe one day
I could become
Someone who dreams
Someone who breathes
Maybe one day
I could fulfill
Those wishes and hopes
With the will to exist
That day, that day
The day that'll never be
Because I failed
And failed and failed
That life I'll never have
As the dreams go to waste
The wishes die and fade
The joy starts to end
And maybe one day
I'll be too lost
Too lost to be found
Too lost to be saved
Fear gripped the heart
Darkness captured the soul
Worry hid the hopes,
And now, dying
In line with the poem, I drew this picture to tell that a depressed person, ultimately finds an escape by dying. It doesn't have to be that way. There's more to life and life is given meaning by doing what you love and expressing your feelings so it doesn't swell up inside you.
Good day steemers, I hope you live your lives well. Fall down 7 times, get up 8. Never succumb to the demon that is depression.
