How Depression Feels

Dark, is all I see and am today

I sit and think of how I feel alone

lost in these, my darkest thoughts I pray

I hope an answer will come to change my tone

The dark clouds are pressing in on me

I don't know when the sky will be cleared

I wait expectantly to be set free

It not coming is what I most am scared

When the cold and angry winds fly by

I feel my eyes are welling up with tears

I wonder, what is my attempt to try

And as I wait, the sky, it looks and lears

Every day I pay this dreadful cost

Every day I feel as if I'm lost

sad poetry
