Rajat Kanti Chakrabarty Poet Rhyme

Loneliness Comes In Blues

Loneliness comes in blues
                                 Mood strikes serotonin falls
                                   Night is on snake venom
                                       Burning like coals.

                                           I am alone
                                           I am alone
                                       Where's my wife?
                                       Where's my son?
                                          Who cares?
                                    The world is on shares.

                                  Curtain of depression falls
                                     I am in rabbit whole
                                       Cutting my souls
                                    Neurons are in brawls
                                     On all my existence
                                  Scroll of depression rolls.




NOTE:
This is a true story. 2001. I suffered a bout of depression. I felt extreme loneliness. But this was a symptom of my disease. In fact my wife and my son did everything they could.

Kelly Deschler November 20, 2014 at 12:03 AM I can relate to the lonely feelings you've expressed here. I think all of us go through times like this.... My aunt also suffers from depression and it has not been easy for my family to watch her go through that.... I wish you the best of luck in Frank's contest. Great work, Rajat! Rajat Kanti Chakrabarty November 20, 2014 at 12:17 AM So nice of you Kelly you are so great.Love Hugs! ....RAJAT

Gary Bateman November 19, 2014 at 12:33 PM Rajat My Very Good Friend!! Best of Luck in the contest with this write. Your rhyme narrative is quite compelling given that it is a true story. I do hope the best for you and that your recovery continues to be 100%!! A most definite "7" from me and this one's a FAV too!! (I just posted a Tanka on "Love" a few minutes ago. Your write here is about "Depression" and I ended up writing about "Love" this evening -- what a dichotomy and difference!!) Best Wishes with Love and Energy!! Gary Rajat Kanti Chakrabarty November 19, 2014 at 12:49 PM Love Gary. Yes I have recovered thanks to good wishes from my friends.I am on Ecitalopram. I pay my regards to you, your wife and your dear ones.God bless you. You are a great soul. LOve. Take care XXXXX RAJAT
