Depression isn’t just having bad days, it’s having good days with a bad state of mind. It’s having days where you seek and seek but you cannot find. It’s wilted flowers and bright sunshine, It’s a straight path with jagged lines. It’s a turn signal that has 3 lefts and 2 rights. It’s seeing a bird with clipped wings in flight. It’s confusion when there should be clarity, It’s the betrayal you feel when everyone seems to lack sincerity. It’s a smile that reaches all places but the heart, It’s knowing where you want to finish but not knowing where to start.
