Depression Cloud
I thought you had been resigned to the past
But all of a sudden a new wave hit me with a blast
With barely a trigger
An unexplainable melancholy immersed me with vigour
Suddenly I don't find joy in anything around me
I want to hide away, calapse and sleep
It takes a monumental effort not to weep
Still I try and be normal so no one will tell
Oblivious to my private hell
It's hard work but I'm grateful for the distraction
Lest dark thoughts in my head gain too much traction
My energy is zapped, from what I'm not sure
I've no interest in doing anything
The most joyous activity is now a chore
I can't even muster the strength to pray
I can only find comfort in the fact, these days the cloud only comes for a short stay
I plough on through the despair
Until I can escape to the comfort of my bed and trust tomorrow I will wake up without a care
But all of a sudden a new wave hit me with a blast
With barely a trigger
An unexplainable melancholy immersed me with vigour
Suddenly I don't find joy in anything around me
I want to hide away, calapse and sleep
It takes a monumental effort not to weep
Still I try and be normal so no one will tell
Oblivious to my private hell
It's hard work but I'm grateful for the distraction
Lest dark thoughts in my head gain too much traction
My energy is zapped, from what I'm not sure
I've no interest in doing anything
The most joyous activity is now a chore
I can't even muster the strength to pray
I can only find comfort in the fact, these days the cloud only comes for a short stay
I plough on through the despair
Until I can escape to the comfort of my bed and trust tomorrow I will wake up without a care
