POEMS

DREAMS OF DEPRESSION

Does the existence of life ever make you hold your head in your hands
Because it is the only option you have when you want to remain sane?
I have rolled around on the floor writhing in pain in just this way and
Pleaded for this all to end, but I was saddened to find I still remained.

Are you ever startled when you turn to answer someone and suddenly
Realize you are alone but the whole time you know someone just spoke?
Perhaps I shouldn't even confess that these voices have been my reality
And the voices have unintelligible conversations making me discomposed.

Isn't it shocking when you stop in your steps as you recognize the place,
And the people, and all the events as having appeared to you in dreams?
I remember the fears, and anxieties, and demons of my mind as I face
The horrific, uncontrollable scenarios and hope they don't come to be.
