DEPRESSION

Locked in a world of imagination 
The only way out,a daydream 
Your preferred lifestyle,a mindset 
Your sad personality,gracefully fed 
With grief and regret 

Pop back to consciousness , all regret 
Wishing you weren't the soul trapped in this body 
Smiles and laughter too fake they spell feign 
Friends cant see through,your inner-self on free fall 

Life unfair gravity swallowing your consciousness 
Confusion,unwanted ally 
Getting high and laid,unnecessary comfort 
Goals and ambition,a lost course 
Disappointment and disgrace,you become 
Humanity and existence, you decline 
Death, you embrace 

That's all you get 
From DEPRESSION

i really like the use of the comma and the stop and start nature of the flow. its really well done and adds a lot to the thoughts behind the poem. the last section really drives it home, the correlations you make here are spot on. good job.

It has a few typos that could be fixed, but overall, I enjoyed it!
