Mirage of the Mind

Life has truly changed                                                                                                                                              As if, into a small circle, I am caged

Depression drove me, to daily toil                                                                                                                      Out of solitude, mind mends to boil

Life is never fresh                                                                                                                                        Unaware, how can I relish to refresh?

Life is worse than hell                                                                                                                                         Untold woes, to whom shall I tell?

I was not prepared to face, such sucker punch                                                                                              From normal life, should I retrench?

Life is an illusion, true love you shall hardly find                                                                               Learnt that love is a mirage of the mind!
