Contradictions
Depression’s Different Faces
Dear Depression,
❀
One day your touch is featherlight
Taunting
The next it is a fist to the gut
Brutal
❀
One moment you are
The hesitance in a smile
The next you are heavy bedsheets
And unopenable curtains
❀
Sometimes you are thunderstorms
Sheet lightning and a grumbling sky
Other times you are a drought
Dry throat, parched lips, scorched skin
❀
Sometimes you are dull eyes
And other times you are
The ones that shine to
Hide the darkness
❀
Happiness looks different
On everyone and
So do you
❀
From,
Another one of your victims
❀❀❀❀❀

How, Too
Many people wonder how, too. You are not alone, and I am an expert. I will teach you how, too! First, you need to remit a small application fee and fill out an application describing the nature of your financial situation and how often payments will be made, as this will have great bearing on how well I teach you how, too.

I felt & resonated with each & every line in this. "One moment you are The hesitance in a smile The next you are heavy bedsheets And unopenable curtains" Been there. Still there. Never seem to be done with it.
