BlockchainPoets Weekly Prompt - Depression

Introduction

Thought I would come back for more as I enjoyed few times. The weekly prompt is Depression which is a nice happy topic that people do not like to talk about. I thought I would do this poem about it....

Here is the prompt:

Depressed?

Can't be bothered
Will do it later
Have fun?
Don't think so
No going out
No going in
Just a locked door
A locked mind
A locked body
Emotions wound tight
Like a broken spring
Bent, misshapen
No spring left in your step

Fridge
TV
Computer
Then back to bed

Wine
Drugs
Social media
Then back to bed

Ignore the phone
Ignore the calls
Ignore the invites
Too scared, too tired and too withdrawn
Hiding like a scared mouse
Buried deep in its hole

How are you?
What have you been up to?
Everyone asks
All is fine
All is good
Smile on broken smile, just in case
The armour cracks
It wont
It shines like a beacon of strength
Nothing getting through
Nothing getting in

Depressed?
Nah I am fine
All is well
Life is good
How are you?
