Days of the Depressed
No sounds, no colors, no feelings,
It's just another day.
A disease, crushing and stealing
I don't remember how to play.
It seems to sneak up on you,
Like a Lion stalking its prey.
Suddenly you're sad and blue,
But it wasn't always this way
Colors used to be so vivid and bright,
Clear, as if I could touch some.
Sounds traveled in beautiful flight,
Wherever I would go or come.
But the grey monotony begins to creep,
The striking colors all but lack.
All I want to do is rest and sleep,
I just want my old self back.
Depression.
