To the One That Only Survives

Who in life
          only survives,
          truly I say to you:
           The life does not relish... !
            It's like being in prison,
            without water and bread
             forsaken to perish

I am a little conflicted over what this means, and it seems a little depressing.

It means that surviving is living on less than bread and water, is to understant that many live this way , suffering, reality not depression...be not conflicted, salute, alkas
