When Depression Owns the Heart

When Depression Owns the Heart

A Poem by Dkincaid
"

This isn't a reflection on how I generally feel, though I have, on and off, most my Life, but it was more written as an understanding of so many that do deal with this on a daily basis.

"

 



A depression so deep it finds a way into the Soul,

and travels through every pore of your Heart.

A depression so large it encompasses every bit
of your Reality,

and leaves Reality a cloudy memory.

A depression so dense it compresses every will
you once had,

and bows you down to accept it as it's own.

A depression so devious it takes you piece by piece,

and consumes each piece day by day.

A depression so truly disheartening,

and leaves you no other emotions.

A depression so dangerous,

it slaughters,

everything,

inside,

of you.

It's kind of a black cloud hanging behind one's eyes...blocking out all light. Thank goodness for Prozac, lol. I enjoyed this piece as well.

I really like this piece but I think you could make it even better with a few simple changes. In line 3 you could say ---- Being so large... line 5 could be --- So murky and dense...and so on and
in line 6- I would use accept it as your own instead of it's own. Well those are my thoughts.
