Mute

A Poem by therisa
"

How depression affects me, at times.

"
Want
To speak
But can not.
 
As if
This malaise
Which we call
Depression.
 
Is slowly
Spreading throughout
My entire body
Consuming my soul.
 
Withdrawing
Deeply
Into myself.
 
Where
The loudest shout is
A mere whisper
Upon my lips.
