Depress the Depression

Thursday evening, a moment of healing.
Stuck in my bed, thoughts pondering
Thoughts about life’s essence that we breathe out, sparkled with woes
Those days, when your feelings gush out,
Like an army of soldiers ,
Announcing a war between your mind and heart .
You are trying hard,
Harder and tougher
You feel lost,
Wasted and shunned like a rotten fruit
You want to be seen and acknowledged ,
For your slotted pain,
That keeps entering your soul,
Flooding that “once upon a time” swag,
That you have in your zodiac. 
You try hard,
Trying to protect your fragile mind,
Constantly attacked by timeless time. 
Your fears run a marathon,
Instead of your legs 
Your shadow watches you,
Rather than your pets.
Wait, do I make sense ?
No, let me get back to the point. 
Step up , my sweetness 
Unveil yourself to the world of madness,
Where reality actions your brain,
To a world of happiness again. 
Daydream, self talk , stage your dreams 
and sleep walk. 
Place your heart over your head,
And let the golden light clear your mess. 
Rise up from being a voiceless extinct, 
Spread your blissful gown,
Far across the land, where women will talk 
And men will stalk  
And they will murmur in Romeo's style,
O, she doth teach the torch to 
burn bright!

So, you my friend
Here I am presenting you,
A coffin to depress depression 
And erase it from your precious mind,
And bathe in the sweetness of your life.
