I'm as depressed as all of hell

huh! like by now you couldn't really tell

my skin feels as if its about to catch fire and burn

like there is some lasting lesson in this farce of

an emotion I am feeling

that I must face so to learn

why is it for the one I can not have I so often

seem to fondly yearn

and when will requited love allow me the chance to

take tomorrow's turn

should you decide to release me from this so very

dedicated depression

I would attempt to put forth a better first foot

on which to stand my gravely guarded ground

but keep me in this much too

'Blatant Blue Funk'

and I will drift until in my own distractions

I defiantly drown

please accept this sad yet sincere apology for

wasting so much precious energy on such a turbulently

tired matter

but how else can I get through this traumatically deep

personal pain

unless I talk it to death with my incessant chatter....
