And here it is: my most recent depressive episode.
On a stage
It awaits
To be mocked
Locked
In a thought
Much like Dune
Concentrate
Relate?
These things that cause pain shall pass,
No, they will not last.
Once you become what exists
Flow through experience
I am physically part of a world I helped create
Letting go of a hate
I had for myself
By this, I mean nothing to understand,
Unless you land
Somewhere mentally similar
The lights in my eyes dimmer
Flicker
The lights in my eyes
Sighs.
Realize everything is temporary,
Moments so scary
Are a reflection of me
The one only I can see or hear,
The one who lives in fear
I set you free as the tears
Run away from my eyes
Lies
I told myself to fit inside
A version of myself I cannot hide.
And then a feeling subsides
A calming tide
Waters more settled,
A love in me mettled in a defeat of my own game,
Now sane
Is the forever battle in my brain.
I will manage,
I will carry on a lighter note,
How this poem
helped deal with this depressive episode.
