I believe in a picture. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. And #pic1000 describes a lot, it shows a woman in a white garment floating on an ocean. Words keep running through my head as I felt she is feeling so depressed and trying to let go of the pain in her heart.

FLOATING IN THE OCEAN OF DEPRESSION

Who am I?
Who am I trying to be?
I still can't figure out what my life is turning into.

Tonight you ask me,
What depression feels like,
I think, then tell you,
I wish I could explain depression to you.
How I wish I could feel anything.
I'm tired", I say
That's all, And I believe it is true.

Pain in my heart,
Sorrows in my mind,
Tears in my eyes,
Grief in my vein,
Confusion in my blood,
Aches in my heads
Oh….I'm a loner
All alone in this weird world.
Struggling for a peaceful mind

But yet….
The tears that come out of my eyes,
Burns my feelings,
Making my eyes red and hot.

All my hopes are gone,
And now the depression steps in,
Destroyed my heart and soul,
Tortured me without Mercy,
Making life too hard to cope with.

Behind this face that carries a smile,
Lies a dark road that goes on mile after mile.

How can they hear these silent screams in my mind??
They can't hear my thoughts if I keep telling them I am fine.
It's just like holding on to happiness
Like holding water in your hands.
It just trickles between your fingers and disappears into the sand.

Even when I promise myself never to cry,
I can't help it anymore,
And now,
Am seriously floating in this ocean of depression.

Thanks for reading ❣️
