At Least, I Hope So

At Least, I Hope So

A Poem by vydenmyria

Mother texts the wife to ask if I'm OK.
I'm OK, mom.
At least, I hope so.
I'll never really know for sure.

Listening to The Smiths
and photo-shopping vacation photos
so that others think my life is just grand.
If they only really had a clue.
But they never will, 
because I have nothing to share
to those that pretend to care.

Right now I feel like a pin-less grenade.
It's the timer that has me intrigued,
at least for the moment.
But when it blows,
I'll go...

At least, I hope so...

It's the timer that has me intrigued. That is a fascinating and sinister line all in one. Depression is a monster, living and breathing. It is fluid as it ebbs and flows the pulling out of surf before the tsunami. It is devastation. We find our high ground - that is my hope for those who deal with the abyss.
