Seasonal DepressionA Poem by Maya M
I don't know how to write about heartbreak
or unrequited love Without sounding cheesy But don't know how to write about anything else lately. You see, my room is messy With old clothes Empty cups of tea And books I've read, books I'm reading, books I'll maybe, someday, read No, I am not smart or condescending I just like the feeling Of being somwhere else I still haven't decided if this place I'd like to dissolve into has you or not But that's not the only thing i haven't decided about yet Because my room is a mess And a while ago I had your hoodie lying around here I hope I won't be feeling this way forever Because we both know you will, at least about me. To you I'm like a nice bus driver I am the feelong of waking up in the morning to find out class was canceled I'm Tuesday night pizza A pleasant surprise You could easily live without And to me To me you are the sun In the distant north It disappears for months at a time And even when it's there Its light is so weak you can barely tell it apart from a florescent bulb And it's dufficult It's very hard To manage without Though eventually everyone gets used to it And maybe like those people in Scandinavia I'll expose myslef to fake sunlight, and I'll be happy without your light Or at least I'll be sure enough to write about something else.
