Depression






Photo by Puvi Joshi (Mint Icetea Photography)


Depression..
A numb feeling towards joy
Oppression..
crushing the blooming buds of joy

Engulfing negativity,
consuming all the darkness;
Creating vacuum in the heart's alley,
Blocking possible paths of happiness

Feeling left alone..
Like a black sheep among white
Feeling lost... Lost like a star at the corner,
blinking with the pale light

Life seems so worse
feeling bitten by the snake of curse
Life seems so worse
feeling vague like the pointless verse

Now, the sight of rose
cheers not
But, its underlying thorn
pricks a lot

Eyes deny to cherish
rainbow full of colors
Heart deny to replenish
wasted sad, gloomy and empty hours

Lips slowly forget
how do they actually smile
they begin to wear 'silence'
and unspoken words form a pile

venomous thoughts evolve
from the crust of tormented heart
Hope dies and dissolves
and thoughts of suicide start..
