Glass Half Empty

If depression were a colour,
It would be the shade of your tears as they endlessly flow down your face

If depression were a taste,
It would be just like the emptiness in your stomach as you starve yourself in the efforts to become skinny

If depression were a smell,
It would be just like the metallic scent of blood from the cuts that ease your pain

If depression were a sound,
It would be just like the taunts of all those who teased you, echoing through your mind, eating away at your very existence.

Until you finally find peace and silence as you bid your last goodbye
