Description
Life rumbles alongThis bumpy path
Like a cart with one wheel
It isn't the cart which you fear
Death is what you fear
Yet the cart is what I fear
Death is the easy part of life
In the cart, torment is oft
In death, if you've done good,
Torment is gone
In the cart, I've no energy left to grab
In death, I am energy with the universe at my core
In the cart turmoil is great, a sore ass is permanent
We as humans must toil and grasp for straw from our cart
We must live, for tomorrow
Though today wasn't gratifying enough
I fear living and
Not being enough,
Enough to grasp at the next bit of air
The grass is yet far away
When life flails down this path
I'd rather let it keep clumsily rumbling away
I'm content sitting here, bumping along,
Fiddling away with my only bit of straw
Afraid to try to grasp more,
Afraid to grasp it and be unable to tear it away
I'm depressed
I will live life in no grasping manner
It must all be brought to my cart,
Forcing its way into my hand
Even then I might not grasp it
I'd rather let it fall

Depression is just an extreme sadness that wont go away because of the person's outlook on life or the situations they are in. At least that's how I look at it.
