Analysis of Depression Consumed Me
Feeling depressed,
An insidious beast,
Consumes, devours masses
That cross its furious ways.
A loud vacuum cleaner
That nastily aspirate
The joyful life that I truly deserve.
It's like a monstrous thief,
That steals my happiness,
leaving my being, so powerless.
In bed, I lay
weary, all-day
tears flowing
like a raging river,
Uncontrollable.
My heart aches.
My head pounds.
My soul cries out in pain.
The darkness creeps in.
It’s like a Nimbostratus,
Overhead, it looms.
Conceived when a student wanted
To shoot me in the head.
It's dark and heavy,
filled me with dread
It sapped my energy,
left me feeling dead.
