I Wish I Could Leave This Poem Blank
I wish i could leave this poem blank
because that's the only way
that i would able to express
how empty i feel
Author's Notes/Comments:
Without any motivation to do anything, and nothing really exciting me/ making me happy, i felt like i finally needed to convey how empty and blank depression can make you feel.
About Depression
.
Said, is not the feeling,
the chasm where hope
goes to disentagrate,
optimism crumbles under
the heaviest boots
of despair, where dreams
of sun and clean skies
turn opaque.
.
Trapped would be better
because there are boundaries,
imprisoned welcomed with
definable bars. Here, a simple
nothing touchable is.
.
Even empty vessels have
air. A total void impossible, yet
it is seeming and hard pain
we solemnly wish would
evaporate as emotions fade
and then vanish.
