What It Feels Like.

do you want to know what depression feels like?

depression is like you have ink instead of blood.

every beat of your heart hurts

until you are completly numb.

it feels like your lacking something...

but it's not oxygen.

This poem is about: 
Me
My country
Our world

Tell me about the backstory to this piece

TamingOfSeaWolves

i've had depression since i saw six yrs old. whenever i tell someone that, they always ask whats its like. its hard to describe not knowing what its like without depression, so i wrote this to help me explain.
