DEPRESSION
Imprisoned in depth, dungeon-like,
complicated, severe.
No meaning, nor purpose.
How do I get from there to here?
One moment is white, the next is blue.
Unpleasant emotions, is all I can view.
Initiative stymied, lost motion, or touch.
"Well-being" secluded, dare not feel,
May feel too much!
Who put me here?
There must be someone to blame?
I can't see their face, nor remember their name?
Standing outside, viewing from within.
Must pull myself together,
But where to begin?
Be calm, stoic, how?
Easy flowing tears,
Deep down no feelings, empty,
vacant vacuum, fears!
Anxious, inner anxieties,
Mental orders, no, disorders,
Counting, sorting, neatly compact.
No concentration, nothing is in tact!
Is this boredom?
Seeking a way to escape?
I'll sleep now, perhaps a nightmare?
T'will all be gone when I awake!
Going through motions,
I'm a void in time, suspended without thoughts,
Answers, questions, reason, or rhyme.
Lacks control, matters not.
Panic, devastation, desolation,
Pieces unsorted, unseen soul,
Neglected tasks, forgotten role.
Can't reach out, stifled, close, encased.
Unfinished sloppy, not clean.
No help, hopeless, where to lean?
Depression, unlike grieving,
For grieving means feeling grief,
With depression, feelings are robbed,
Exaggerated moods, no relief!
No understanding, comprehension, see?
I care less, and less,
What kind of person was "me?"
Did I thrill of excitement?
Flush of embarrassment?
Was my life filled with joy, and happiness?
Was I loved less?
I've been robbed of joy, loss of self-identity.
When will I be released, and set free?
And, when I am, will I be "Me?"

Created for all the
poor souls that have
ever fallen into a deep
depression.
I created this just for you

P.S. I left and divorced him
in 1993............finally!!!

Oh dear. This is just inescapably devastating to the heart and soul, my dear friend.
How horrid that this happens to so many, (myself included at one time). Life is
surely not a piece of cake and we need people around us who understand and
care about us. That quote at the end? My God, that is POWERFUL and so true!!
Thank you for sharing this. You are one tremendously classy lady. :) I'm very
happy that you were able to move on and seek all that you truly deserve. May
all your warm thoughts flow endlessly back to you, my dear.
Perfectly worded. Almost scary how you captured this emotion! ~ M
