Ode To Depression
No one tells you how lonely it is
Sitting in the kitchen floor at 2am
The taste of metallic resolution
The weight of conviction
No one tells you about the numbness
Extremities floating softly
The dull whisper of water
The warmth of surrender
No one tells you about the satisfaction
An agonizing temptation
Tantalizing milky canvas
Tortured artist begging for release
No one tells you about the end
How quiet it gets
Temperamental judgement
Truculent rage
