Depression




Depression

Every-day
Pressure on the mind
Weighs
Like pressure on the body.
Wave after wave
Like wave after wave of Sea
Beating
On withering shores of sand.

Crippled 
By gravity
Earth will not move.
Every-day drowning 
Choking struggle
Bleeding light
Withering sand
Hemorrhage of green
And death of colour.

She does not scream
She does not cry
She turns, dancing on an axis
She burns solar (at the plexus).
She didn’t scream
She didn’t cry – who knew
She was bleeding light?

Heavy on the mind
As heavy on the body
Every-day a burden
Every-day Sea rages
With wave after wave
Beating 
On the back
Breaking 
With force –
The mighty hanging
Of wave after wave
Above the shore
Comes crashing
Breaking 
With force…

‘Snap out of it!
No time for pretty words
When you are bleeding light.’
