People think depression
Is about being sad.
They think it's just when
You 'feel down'.
It's not.
It's like a darkness that
Creeps over you and fills
You.
It drains all your
Emotions.
It takes everything
From you,
And leaves you
Feeling hollow
And
Numb.
It's not sadness,
It's not anger,
It's hopelessness.
Imagine waking up
And there being
No colour.
Walking outside
And feeling no wind.
Eating a meal
And tasting nothing.
Holding someone
And feeling
Completely alone
At the same time
When you're depressed,
It's not a bad mood.
It's a numb,
Empty,
Hollowness that
Seems to never leave.
It's feeling alone
In a room full of
People.
You feel as if there's
No hope left.
