A young man once asked me
Are you depressed
I looked and him in confusion
And asked
Why would you say that?
He said
I cam see it in your eyes
Then he paused
Looked at me
And spoke again saying
Whats it like
You know
To be depressed
I pondered on the question
One that nobody had ever
Ever thought to ask me
And responded
The definition of depression is as follows
Feelings of severe despondency and dejection
But in simpler terms
It is the ultimate sadness
I paused for a moment
Before i continued
I looked at the man
He seemed intrigued by what i had to say
I continued saying,
Depression is like volcanoes
You are at peace
On this beautiful island
Laying out in the sun
When all of a sudden
Something erupts
And it starts in your stomach
And crawls up to your brain
Poisoning it with deadly gas
It doesnt stop at that
Imagine getting kicked in the gut
With a high heeled shoe
Every morning
Getting out of bed
You would want to stop getting out of bed right?
Thats what its like
For someone
With depression
Its a mental kick in the gut
With a nice pointy
Stiletto shoe
Because your are too upset to move
I stopped a moment to look up at the young man
Only to find that three more people
Were tuning in
I didn't mind though
I continued quietly saying,
Its sad really
Some days i wouldn't have the will to move
I wouldn't have the will to eat
Or shower
Or brush my hair and teeth
Because i didn't see the point
Depression
Is the ultimate sadness
A disease
That you can never rid yourself of
