What is Depression?

What is depression?
Is it a wave of sadness?
Is it a weight that sits on you
holding you down?
Keeping movement restricted and
uncomfortable?
Does it hurt?
Does it make me cry
for no reason
I can see.
What is depression?
Is it wasting a weekend?
A week?
A month?
A life.
What is depression?
Is it tied to heartbreak?
It is tied to boredom?
Is it an impending doom?
An indescribable sense
of failure?
of shortcomings?
of a life unfulfilled?
a life never to be fulfilled?
What is depression?
Is it an unwillingness to separate
from fantasy?
Is it the knowledge that
fantasy is no longer enough?
Is a fantasy fleeted?
What is depression?
Is it this?
