Insidious
I turned you into a Voo Doo doll
With pin points in and out
My name is called Depression
I am your cause for doubt
I make you see with apathy
You wilt from my oppression
Offers of love I block
Debilitating Depression
I isolate with pins poking out
Holding others at bay
Rotting diminishing ego
Causing healing delay
I implode thoughts without reason
Heightening embarrassment
Multiplying your negatives
I’m Depression, so arrogant!
