Living Dead

by A.N.M. - Pisces

I don't feel alive...but I don't feel dead...
I'm somewhere in between instead!
Frankly, I would rather be
One or the other.  That is my plea!
Each day seems dull and meaningless
And little passion I can caress--
Wanting eagerly just to find
A little of what I've left behind
From years ago when I felt ALIVE!!
Though things weren't GREAT I still had drive!
Little, medication does
But give a temporary buzz--
I just can't seem to keep my head
From feeling like the living dead!

Reason for writing:

    What depression feels like!...Really sucks!
