Tell me
The kind of depressed you are
What mask do you wear?
I'm level intermediate, not quite pro
But I know how to deflect the stares
I know how to smile when they're watching
and laugh when they're listening
To amuse and offer entertainment
I know how to say "oh I'm just tired,"
offer an assisting hand and get my work done without discomfort being blatant
Tell me, are you trained in the art of deception, deflection, suppression, disappearing or the dedicated practice of self induced pain?
Do you over indulge, sparsely eat, liquid diet, junk treat or go to sleep and only feed yourself the sound of pattering rain?
Tell me do you help others, drown in your hobby or hide under your covers?
Do you dream of intimacy, eat buckets of ice cream, submerge yourself in music or frequently fantasize of how to hover?
Do you have support? Are you struggling alone? Do you not know how to express yourself out loud?
Tell me, do you do all these things at different times or all at once and also float around in a fog cloud?
Same
