of wandering in this burning confusion
in a daze
has my spirit wasting away
as I see that the misery
never really fades

chasing fools gold
is what I do best
with so many tools of sorrow
I easily deflect
and emotionally react to common sense

sleepless nights
as I encounter my demons
and I cry
cause it is so scary livin
as tears fall
I can not explain what I am feelin
it is my own fault
I have nothing to believe in

In this agony it is so hard to breathe
I need black magic to help me to rest
so I do not fall of edge
with
the rope around my neck

I will never forget the feel of happiness
as I take my last breathe
and the loss of so many regrets
and
I owe depression a debt
for soothing me
as I await
for what comes next

Sad but beautiful….

"chasing fools gold
is what I do best"

Life is over when you have nothing left to chase..
Rejoice!

Depression is anesthesia for living. It makes us numb, immobile, and vague. We are sidelined with a bag of bricks on our shoulders, unable to hold a thought still in our mind, or so full of thoughts our brain is like a blender.
Your poem describes what it is doing to you, and it is truly a sad story, well told. The title is appropriate; depression weighs us down. But your tale is the story of a fighter. And you leave us all with hope, and by your example, courage.
