Poetic Depression

Does a poet also suffer from depression? Lives in perplexity, exhaustion! And groans in the pain of mental death! To me- Poetry is a spontaneous life partner, An indicator of purity, a prophet of insightfulness To me- Poetry is the panacea for forgetting sorrow, The happiness of earthly sympathy Intuition and wisdom are the forerunners of poetry In the midst of which self-realization is complete He is complete in himself. And that's complete in own-self Does he ever suffer from depression? Chattogram © Mahtab Bangalee
