Depression. What is it? How does it feel? What's it like? Can you define it anyway that makes sense? No word limit, poetry preferred. I am missing so many of these! Please tag me, RowRow1990

Worthless

Empty.

Alone.

Worthless.

Choose.

Is today

a good day?

Or a bad day?

Uncertainty.

There is a hole

Where my feelings, my soul, the core of my being,

Should reside.

Nothing.

I feel...

Nothing

Empty.

Alone.

Worthless.

Why am I here?

Existence

Is torture.

I don't deserve this.

I need to escape.

And yet,

I feel...

Nothing.

Empty.

Alone.

Worthless.

Who am I?

What is my purpose?

Surely

Not this.

I am a burden

To everyone.

It's all my fault.

They thrive,

But here I am.

All I am, all that

I feel...

Nothing.

Empty.

Alone.

Worthless.

Choose.

Is today

a good day?

Or a bad day?

Reassurance.

I can function today.

My purpose,

Is finally clear.

It's as if the sun

Has finally

Started to shine.

I feel...

Everything.

Complete.

Together.

Worthy.

For now.

Tomorrow is a new day.

Uncertainty.

And suddenly,

I feel...

Nothing.

Why?

          Why?

                    Why?

Help me.

Save me.

Rescue me.

I don't want to feel

Empty,

Alone, or

Worthless.

Not anymore.
