Mind of the Depressed...

What if everything you have ever known...
Was gone.

The laughter of children playing...living,
Became crying...

The happiest part of the day was when you could go to sleep...
But your deep desire is to not wake...

But you dream world is beautiful,
You want to stay forever...

All animals are sickly,
Dieing...

Even when a child does laugh,
It doesn't reach her eyes...

As if her soul had been ripped out,
And all that is left is a hollow body that has forgotten happiness...

Detached from the world,
Always feeling so cold...

No matter how many blankets you wrap up in,
There is no escaping the chill that tries to ice your heart...

Every day you are forced into this world,
And every day you are driven to your limits...

But no one will help...

On the other side you can see the world,
So bright and beautiful, everything filled with love,
And life...

The flowers seeming to sing to the sun,
As it's golden rays dance around the horizon...

And in the distance, the sweet music of laughter...

But not here.

The ground is hard and dark,
The sun only casting a gloom of shadow across the land...

And no matter how far you travel,
You are always alone...

Lost...

Forgotten...

The clouds gather thickly,
Hiding any hope there might have once been...

You can see the beautiful world,
Right within your grasp...

But as you reach out,
Everyone turns you away...

Back into the land of shadows...
And the world begins to storm...
