Depression

My heart is empty

with only monotony

beats to keep my body

alive and warm.

My soul is lost

in this world of robots

that take me along

with their actions

they call ' right'.

My mind is blank,
clueless of future
or present or past,
as I walk on rope
so thin and long.

I am walking,
running and moving
continuously in dark,
searching  hopelessly
for shining light

I am alone
amongst people I know
in this world of mine,
I have no one
except me , myself and I

Am I mad?
Or is this phase
we call it -depression?
Am I mentally ill?
Why do I long for
love and care
when I have abundance
of it around me?
My heart is empty
with no answers
for questions above.
