Depression
That dark cloud is hanging around.
That one that comes without a sound.
It needs no reason and no expectation.
You never even have an explanation.
You don't know why you feel the way you do.
You don't know how, why, or least of all who.
They think they caused it, but it is what it is.
It's this deep, dark, never ending abyss.
How do you explain something you can only feel?
How do you feel something that doesn't seem real?
It's like the weight of the entire world is on your shoulders.
No matter how hard you push, it just keeps getting closer.
It feels like it's you versus everyone else.
First it's them and then it's yourself.
They get first and you always get last.
Leave these toxic people in the past.

Hmmm, sounds like an early one. The message is a serious one but the slightly clumsy rhyming takes the edge off it a bit, I think.

Nah, actually kind of recent. Lol. The rest that I'll be posting I wrote at least in the last 6 months, but with this one I was going through the actual depression, but got myself out of it and tried finishing it when I was out of it and just kind of made a mess of it. Lmao. I still like it though. Need to find something to change that last line to. I hate that last line.

No, no, not your poem dear. I just came up with a line as you said you were not totally happy with the last line of your poem. ;-)
