Depresyon: Gone

I've written myself

now into past tense

behind the glass of

new things obsolete

...not there, not at all

since you had been there

watching with a lens

writing past perfect

having brought poetry

out from obscurity...

We had left our shelves

Look who’s knocking?

Depression,

Depression,

Why’d you come here?

And just when I thought

That I graduated last year

From your talks

And your flaws

Well technically, they’re my flaws…

But why are you here?

You came knocking again

On my bedroom walls

And onto my deep, black halls

You’ve brought Insomnia with you

I haven’t seen him around since the day that I left you

I’m not a child anymore

I’m not afraid of you anymore

But what’s more frightening is when I stare at the mirror

I see a horror…

The lines in my face

Sleepless nights left its trace

And if I continuously stare

I find myself more scared

I see my life down the wire

I got nothin to hold on to

Was once hanging by a thread

But now I’m falling down, I’m through

No more positive energies

All but negative synergies

I can’t think of happy thoughts

Anxiety has consumed me…

So why’d you come knocking?
