“Depression is nourished by a lifetime of ungrieved and unforgiven hurts.” Is a depression quote that sings so true.  Like sad poems, we have our favorite songs or literature that we read or listen to overcome our depression.  The daily stressors of life are overwhelming for everyone at times.  Depression poetry can be the inspiration needed to move forward when all other resources have been exasperated.  Writing your way out of depression often times is the antidote to allowing it to take over your life.  Depression poems are an avenue for one to freely express what their emotions have long been wanting to express from their soul.

Depression poems allow one to introspect and let emotions flow through pen and paper.  Sadness from lost love or death of a loved one can hinder resilience and ability to handle with daily stressors because of depression.  Such poetry can help break one free from depression’s shackles.

In teen life there is many lost love and sad love and one will find teen life poems, affected by depression, where it challenges their creativity and tends to go within one’s self.  In doing so one begins to question everything.  Sad teen poems that speak of life’s struggles allow them to introspect and let their emotions flow. 

Depression poems can break away isolationist feelings and help one self to conquer their mixed emotions.  Such emotions that can grasp a person and cripple every aspect of their life, depression poetry can aid the mind and help better understand what the source of the melancholy is coming from.

Depression can paralyze and drain us, making it a very real and dangerous illness.  Depression is not easily described when there are so many forms that can ale us.  In every aspect of life, depression may challenge our lives.  There is so much going on in this world that it becomes too overwhelming with stress and struggles life, seemingly generously gives us.  Statistics say that approximately 18.8 million America adults are affected by clinical depression this year.  So how can one deal with the overwhelming effects of betrayal, loneliness, and everyday aggravations in life, along with many other forms of depression?  Depression eventually will distract us from our daily activities, leaving the allusion of being alone, even when there is a world of people around going about their own life’s trials.  Poetry has been ranked as a top form of therapy and is an avenue for the seemingly impervious emotions, eagerly wanting a way out to relieve us of the burdens we hold.  

“Depression is a confused and hopeless state that drives people to desperate lengths.  All I can say is don’t be afraid to talk about it and try to be open if others are trying to reach out.”

FIRST KNOWING

That second day of kindergarten, I ditched
while Miss Clemens bent at the sink,
helping Peter Farley wash the paint off his hands.
I scurried across the wide green fields that led
to the road where our row
of white townhouses awaited me.

I wanted no more days without my mother
placed in the center of every hour.
I wanted her voice, the scent of the perfume
she dabbed on her writst each morning
before we watched my father walk away.
We stood at her dresser while she released
the stopper from a crystal bottle so blue
it rivalled sunlight staining the ocean surface.

I wanted to travel with her
from supermarked to bank, dry cleaners
to drugstore, wherever the days life took her.
As if sensing some hunger to come,
I craved her with a fierceness that made me run,
as if knowing I would soon lose her to a sadness
vaster than any of these fields I could cover
with the pace of my own feet.
