nothing is real
Nothing is real
Except the pain
Depression increase
Pressure release
Sadness, a madness
Self loathing
Vicious cycles
Up and down
Back and forth
Broken in time
Enriched with heart ache
Squimmush
Get out the tums
By the bed dummy
Two maybe three
To handle the tummy
Cobwebs of depression
Systemic in nature
DNA instructed
Manic some days
Depressive most others
Try to get
Boots on ground
To fight war in head
Get up soldier
Time to release
Those endorphins
Get dressed
To fight for life
Take your meds
Be happy
To be alive
Except the pain
Depression increase
Pressure release
Sadness, a madness
Self loathing
Vicious cycles
Up and down
Back and forth
Broken in time
Enriched with heart ache
Squimmush
Get out the tums

To fight war in head

To fight for life

Be happy
To be alive

I love the structure and format of this write. The short direct expressive wording that you put into play to describe our tedious and exhausting lives complete with life's challenging words is everyone's Truth. Great Submission Again El!!!
