Still the Same

Depression as a gray fog

 

Still the Same

 

The still grey fog begins

Rising all around

Taking away hope,

In its wake despair

Feeding upon itself

Now grows thicker

Darker, more darkly

Hiding all brightness

Casting me down

Mocking me as I try

To rise against its mighty force

Destroying my will

Taking away joy

Removing all I hold dear

Yet all is still the same

Nothing different

Not one bit changed.

All stays as it was

Hidden beneath

This strange dark veil

Cornered with no escape

Death would mock

Too easy it says

Give me all

The hope you store

From inside your heart

I will devour your soul

Take all your life

And leave you

Broken, empty

Not even a shell

And yet it is all

Still the Same.

Depression sucks,
I knwo of those feelings all to well
It's a daily battle.
Sometimes we just can't see that the
grass is greener on the other side of life.
Well expressed emotion
