Another Eager Student of Depression

I must now learn how to laugh! Does it start with a smile? Maybe not even, A tilting of the head Or a gentle sighing nod How does it feel to know happiness? Only misery lives here My address is well known at DEATH's Valleys Inn... Check in for the night and depression is guaranteed While I cannot teach you the ways of joy Would I need to though? I have experience in the many and ever so varying arts of sadness. Come learn from me, Feed me your grief! A stir and a bow, A framing of a frown. Glooming in despair ghostly nightmares The dread and despair that filters the air is the feeling I'll impart to you, My desperate and very lonely friend.  The breeze you know and have come to cherish is the stillness of disgust. The peace you have had to deny, to disguise your Demons There is much joy in my shared misery and so I hoard it for myself. this whineful disposition   in my soul; brewing bitterness to its maturation. 2017/11/15 Pick Your Topic Contest: Depression and Sadness!!
