Poems On Depression
 Depression exhausts me. Depression blinds me. Depression strangles me.

- Sri Chinmoy

" The [|vast] universal suffering feel as thine: Thou must bear the [|sorrow] that thou claimst to heal; The day-bringer must walk in darkest night. He who would save the world must share its pain. If he knows not [|grief], how shall he find grief's cure? " -Sri Aurobindo Higher Purpose

No more depression, No more frustration, No more [|hallucination]. In me I see a new dawn- A dawn that will [|reveal] [|Divinity's]life-fulfilment On earth.

-Sri Chinmoy: higher purpose

"Life is a Prison"

Life is a prison, Oh God let me out. No one to listen, To hear when you shout.

Climb the walls of [|insanity], Ride the waves of despair. If you fall it don't matter, There's no one to care.

Used to wish for a window, To see birds, trees and sky, But you're better without one - Stops you aiming too high.

Watching freedom is painful, For those locked away. Seeing joy, love and happiness, Another price that you pay.

Strong is good, weak is bad. Be it false, be it true. Your mind makes the choice, And enforces it too.

Cell walls built by society, With rules to adhere. If you breach the acceptable, You had better beware.

Hide the pain, carry on, Routine is the key. Don't let on that you're not, What you're pretending to be.

Lock it all up inside you, How badly that [|bodes]. Look out for that one day, When it all just explodes.

Leaving [|naught] but a shell, Base functionality too. But killing all else, That was uniquely you.

So how do you grow, With a timebomb inside? Or how to defuse it, Without destroying its ride?

You can't. -Puff Higher Purpose
