When Depression Owns The Heart......... Poem by DARREL KINCAID

When Depression Owns The Heart.........

Rating: 5.0


.......It's a depression so deep it finds a way into the Soul,
traveling through every pore of your Heart.

A depression so enlarged, it encompasses every bit
of your Reality,
leaving that Reality, a mere cloudy memory.

A depression so dense, it compresses every will
you once had,
bowing you down to accept that will, as it's own.

A depression so devious it takes you piece by piece,
consuming, each piece,

day by day.
A depression so truly disheartening,

it Leaves You,
with no other emotions.

A depression so dangerous,
it slaughters,

Everything.
Inside.

Of You.

it is a deep and meaningful poem, maybe just fix a few things in the way you write it, don't change everything just a couple of things. like with devious it takes you piece by piece, consuming, each piece try and use a different word that means the same thing because it just sounds a little off having the word piece bunched together like that. but that is my opinion :)) overall it is a very beautiful poem. and I hope you will write more! :))

I'd like to add to this by adding that depression is not a feeling, it just is and once its there it dominates everything else.
