Too The Naked Eye

It's hard to notice,

not berable if you have.

Too the naked eye,

nothing seems as bad.

 

It hurts those around,

to see the hurt in you.

Depression, honey.

Couldn't explain if I wanted too.

 

It's hard to overcome,

no matter how hard you try.

An overreaction,

to the naked eye.

 

It's lying about your feelings,

to those who seem to care.

You don't trust anybody,

it's being overcome with fear.

 

It's pain all over you,

that pills could never cure.

Looking at the next day,

and never being sure.

 

It's being lonely when your surrounded,

not knowing where to turn.

With every single feeling,

inside you start to burn.

 

It's waking up in the morning,

and breaking down to cry.

It's every invisble problem,

to the naked eye.

 

It's crying yourself to sleep,

no matter how hard you try.

It's feelings of regret,

and always empty inside.

 

It's thinking ending over ending,

until the day you die.

Happiness surreal,

to the naked eye.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

Did I use the word surreal right?
I know it means having the disorienting feeling about something.
Or like, unreal. soo, can't happiness ne surreal to a depressed mind?
help.

Amazing.
I can deffinately relate to this, and this is such an important topic. You wrote about it well. Sometimes people try to write about important topics and fail to make it meaningful. That was not you here :) If you ever need someone to talk to though, you can talk to me :)
Beautifully written.

It's crying yourself to sleep,
no matter how hard you try.

I think that you used the word perfectly!! Depression is a hard thing to deal with for people and all we can do is sit back and watch them get better or worse. Or watch them look like they are getting better i really enjoyed this poem another great one by you!!
