Depression feels like
lack of sleep
feels like
no hope
feels like
hate
feels like
isolation
Depression feels like
failure
feels like
loneliness
feels like
you can’t catch a thought
feels like
stupidity
It is unpredictable
it is tears for no reason
sadness when things should
be happy
It is suffocating
and overwhelming
It is wanting to end this
poem on a positive note
but not being able to
find one
wanting to encourage
but needing encouraged
yourself
wanting to help others
find hope but
feeling hopeless
yourself
wanting to be an uplifter
but having nothing
else to give.
Depression is destruction
