Seasonal Depression



I walk along the streets

with the continuous beep of cars surrounding me.

I talk to all my friends but the problem is,

this feeling won't leave me be.


I hate this season...

For some reason I do.

I don't know why,

but it's not because of you.


It's the smell of the wet leaves in my green yard,

the empty feeling of love.

The color of the leaves is as shiny as gold.

Sometimes I like it... kind of.


Blue skies, green grass,

orange leaves, yellow sun.

People walking outside —

yet I will never have fun.


The dancing of the trees

makes me sad.

I don't know why

I feel so bad.


Crunching leaves,

falling hearts.

Even the wonderful drawings

of the autumn arts.


It makes me feel gloomy.

It makes me feel hurt.

Even the delicious treats won't cure me;

Even the wonderful dessert.


I pray for a treatment

and I pray for a cure.

For no longer

could I bear this pain I endure.


The continuous tragedies

and overall tears –

I highly doubt anything

could replace my fears.


Whispers around;

the fall of the leaves.

Nothing can beat the

sadness my heart heaves.
