Depression Debilitates (freeverse story style)A Poem by JetMardiumSometimes, actually most the time, the depression hits slowly, but it manages to build itself up quickly and powerfully enough to make my legs feel dead, I become unable to move, as much as I want to. As much as I want to get up and move from this chair the only thing that will make me move is love and happiness knowing im not alone, or anger enough raging madness to surge my adrenaline glands and make me jump to my feet if only for a moment. She gets angry, she doesnt understand, inside im dying to apologize for my part in it all, but I cant, not right now, not while I can barely talk. I can move arms, I can move my hands, I can move my neck and eyes just slightly. Fortunate enough to always keep my laptop in arms reach I can still write, if only yo stave the looming storm of depression for a few moments. I want to run to her and hold her and be held back, I want to yell her I love her and im sorry, mostly though I want her, or even just anyone to look me in the eyes and be serious and tell me im going to be OK. That doesn’t happen, so here I am stuck in this chair for god knows how long © 2016 JetMardium |
