The blues
my poem (depression).
You slip from light into darkness
It's like slipping down a slide
Faster,faster
Momentum grows
With outstretched hands to save yourself from the lows
Grab at them straws it will do you no good
We all know where this is going
But the speed is too quick!
Down that slide
Down Down…
Down,
You reach upwards
A force keeps you down
You can scream all you want
Down, Down…
Below
Express yourself, you can't.
Someone is smothering your words!
All that slurs out is a stammer
As you stumble and bumble along
Down, Down..
Down in that hole
You try get up but fragile fingers slip
So weak, so fragile
Like a baby you're reduced
You cry all you want…
Someone laughs
Cackling away
You scream one more time
Jump up from below
With wobbly knees and sweaty brow
For all that people know…
You have just won a bloody battle!
