Depression - Part I
-------------------

Silent, inward and non responsive
Numb to the world
Craving sense deprivation, no interaction.

Hesitancy, anxiety, nervousness
I cannot think, I cannot work
'LEAVE ME ALONE' I want to shout

Never lets up, at home at work
It follows me wherever I go
Worse & worse by every day

Suicide - is it an option I ask myself
Slowly I put that thought away
To that little black box for another day

It hurts, and is painful,
Shaking & crying I start to fall apart
I want to escape far far away

To be continued…
