Today I feel so hollow
The depression it hits me hard
There is no thought
There is no action
That makes me feel this way
It is just a feeling that I live with
Every single day
Sometimes I forget
Until I sit still
Then I realize that this depression
It is real
There is no specific reason
For the way I feel
I sit here alone in silence
Hoping this feeling will end
This is when I try to escape
This is when I pretend

I deeply appreciate how forthright you are about depression. I also love your addendum to this, poetry is often born out of the moment but not written in the moment. Your self-awareness is a beautiful thing. I wish you peace and wellbeing and I look forward to more of your writing! CG

I’ve been through depression myself and have written a poem on the same..
It’d mean a lot to me if you could take out some of your time and take a look at my poems and even give your thoughts on them..
Lots of love and thanks
