The weight of the world
Crushing down on my chest
An invisible force
Stealing my breath
My heart aches with sorrow
For the loneliness I feel
Invisible to those around me
Like an imaginary friend that's not real
The darkness consumes me
And I can't escape its hold
A prisoner to my own mind
As I struggle to be bold
I long for a connection
To break this cycle of despair
But my screams are silenced
In the stillness of the air
Depression is a monster
That devours from within
Leaving behind a shell
Of the person I've always been
So I'll keep on fighting
Against this invisible foe
Holding on to hope
That one day I'll glow.
Can you write a poem about depression and feeling alone and invisible?
