It's Not Cool

Going insane? Am I losing my mind?
Happiness seems to have been left behind.
Look at us all, why are we so sad?
Acting ‘depressed’ and ‘suicidal’ like it’s some kind of fad.
Is it just a sick joke to you? Find this amusing?
While people are out there, a true battle against melancholia they fight, but they’re losing. 
“I don’t feel ****”, people say, “Everything is numb”
Despondency, and depression aren’t cool. What have we become?

being oversensitive and having undulating feelings ...we write what's our own self in revealing...what honesty in this art piece...I identify with it. some people don't relate to an artists emotions ..we write our emotions that are potent...we unleash artists feelings..
