I never know what to write when I feel depressed. Should I write in rhymes just so I can express... myself? Or can I just write a paragraph, no stanzas at all, and call it a work of art? I don't know. What is a poem? Is it an answer to a question? Is it following a question with a question? I guess that begs the question of what is the question and the question to the question. My question questions the questions and the questions that follow the question. Does a poem need to make sense? What if the point is to not make sense? What is the point of writing? Is it to make ourselves feel good? Because I still feel shitty afterwards. Is it to make others feel good? Because why the fuck do I care?
I never know what to write when I feel depressed
Because I feel the heaviness of my chest
The kind that makes me drag my fucking legs
That has me squeezing the fucking temples of my head
Where I'm lying for hours on end on my fucking bed
Jesus I wish I was fucking dead
