Depression

A Poem by Charles Mbigbo

A mental illness

Depression, a monster...
It cripples and disables,
Making each day a nightmare
Leaving life too hard to cope..
And leaving a person without hope

Depression is nurtured
Through violence and neglect
And fist used only to degrade
On words used to neglect

Depression is a Vulture...
That makes anyone it's prey,
Annihilating one's soul
And make them take their lives
