Depression

This poem was inspired from a new neighbors meeting. Her teen committed suicide.

Dread and doom


follow me


Hopelessness envelops


my joy, my hopes, my dreams.


 There is no light at the end


of this tunnel it seems.


Falling, flailing into darkness


unknown. Curling into


myself so I can not be seen.


Taking the last step will


be easy for me. I know the


deep pain will subside once


I cross the forbidden line.


There my pain will be no more


Like an eagle I will soar


into the light that was hidden from me


peace will be mine eternally.

Mary, you've captured through images and words, "depression," it's a sad sickness that robs a person of their souls. The sad thing about teenagers being depressed is they can put on such a good face like all is well when they are suffering so much inside. This is a great writing and I'm sure many readers will relate to this.

Mary, You've expressed well what depression is all about, feelings of hopelessness and despair beyond belief. It is a disease that sometimes will, sadly, lead to suicide. My heart goes out to this lost soul and the family she has left behind.
Hugs, Laura

This writing is true and so deep it almost hurts. I love it. Even though we don't like to admit these thoughts to others, these thoughts frequently exist. I respect you for sharing something personal.
Thank you. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
