I used to be one of the jerks
who thought depression wasn't real

But, lately I've been oblivious
to the strange sadness that I feel

These days I see no point in life
what am i doing here?

A soul gone hollow, empty existence
and a mind that's far from clear

Profound questions rack my brain
but the answers leave me shallow

I feel the formation of a void,
an endless pit so hollow

Things I used to romanticize
bring me joy- no more

Is this a 'perk' of growing old-
just to be filled with bore?

Not usually a downcast being
just vaguely melancholic

when reality punches you in the face
to the truth- far from euphoric.
Let's hope this is a phase
