Depression

Darkness is
Energy depleting
Penance with no
Residual happiness
Emotional
Serenades
Sifting
Inside
Overcoming
Nothing

You nailed it, Im. This is just what depression feels like. This is one of the powerful acrostics I have seen. Makes me see great merit in this verse form. "Overcoming Nothing" is exactly how depression makes us feel. Awesome! Love, Carolyn
