Systematic Deppression

Im angry...
or actually ...
I am mad as hell
because society has failed
yet another soul on this planet
I tell you...
I cant stand it...

As we walk through life
oblivious
to the nucleus
the root of exsistance

As demons in the form of
everyday problems weaken our
resistance...
To the virus..
inside us...
triggered by stress
too many bills and
not enough rest...

As the world news
spews messages
that say
we can not be saved
Our souls are enraged...
and into the abyss
we now engage...
They say ignorance
is bliss
Cause I sure would be
better off
without having to feel
any of this
Rage...

My neice is dead...and
I can not turn the page!

I will not go on acting
like...this shit just
happens in life...
She died by her own hand
and that....JUST AINT RIGHT!!

After facebooking a picture
that should have had folks alarmed
No one expected...
that she would really do herself harm
So somehow...
the system failed..
the train on the track
of my life has been derailed

As elder spirits...
Call...
to my knees I fall...
Tell me people
How can we rid the world
of depression
once...and for all?
