I Wish I Could Leave This Poem Blank

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.
