Illness
Depression is a prison where you are
both the suffering prisoner and the cruel jailer.
~Anon
It’s a nebulous reality
Inside where it can’t be defined~
Insane soaring to the heights;
Insane falling to the depths,
Illusions of happiness like icebergs
Intruding on flames of hope~
I dream of wings without cages.
