Depression
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
Depression
Frustration
The sudden feeling
You get
When the reason
Behind it is
Disappointment
When expectations
You've had
Were a fantasy
Nothing makes you happy.
Why?
Because nothing makes you happy.
That is depression.

Disappointment
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
Disappointment
This has turned into
a familiar feeling
When my heart once again
is ungratefully yearning
For the expectations I set
which are foolishly turning
Into a fantasy I make
when I'm eternally dreaming

Does It Matter?
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
Does It Matter?
Why does it matter?
When I've rested enough
But still too tired
Why does it matter?
When I've worked so hard
But still undesired
Why?
Does it matter?
If my heart wants to retire?

Insomnia
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
Insomnia
Sleep
A temporary remedy
Sleep
A relief so hard to find
Sleep
A luxury it has become
Sleep
A need that can't be bought
Sleep
Taken for granted
Sleep
Come to me
Oh sleep
Bring me
Peace

Loneliness is Eternal
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
Loneliness is Eternal
Naive of me
To think
At last
I'm alone
No longer
Oh but alas
Instead,
I feel
More alone
Than before

Poem to Me
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
Poem to Me
Happiness
I yearn for thee
Why do you always escape me?
The little things
I cannot see
Why can't I appreciate thee?
Ungratefulness
Is there with me
Why is there so much negativity?
This heart of mine
I hope won't be
Always too full of uncertainty.

Sorrow

Feb 2016
Sorrow
I tremble
As the sun sets
For the soul
That is lost
In the sorrows
Of the heart

The Broken Man
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
The Broken Man
Broken that's left
Of a soul that wept
Lifeless and sore
For its heart is no more

The Mind
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
The Mind
Why is it
That the heart desires
But the mind
Conspires
Against good reason?
Insanity
Rules
Humanity

The Unfortunate Heart
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
The Unfortunate Heart
It sinks,
Trembles, and
Throbs
The heart is a true power
Repeatedly strained,
Shattered, and
Disregarded
Can it take much more?

Worry
Jan Jao
Feb 2016
Worry
Worry, worry
Set me free
At work,
Tomorrow I have to be
Sleep
I need terribly
Asleep
Oh please, I sought to be
