Depression is....
Depression is,
what was the word...
it's just on the tip of my tongue
but it wont seem to form.
where is the word,
somewhere floating in the emptiness
between my ears.
i cant seem to find the right word
perhaps left under the heavyness
inside my chest.
I just can't seem to ...remember.... remember!
er...no...
remember the word
that is drowning
right behind the mournful eyes.
remember the word
that is often disguised
as stupidity.
remember the word
that has sucked the energy
right from my soul.
I can't seem to form full thoughts....
I can't seem to remember....
what was the word?
Depression.
