Colorless expressions, no hope, lifeless voice,
No energy or desire, sleeplessness, crying a lot,
Even murder of self, no sense of wrong or right,
Withdrawn into a shell, sitting on a pity pot!
Some say that depression is a damned up libido,
Others blame it on anger that’s turned inwards,
Still many are dogged about chemical imbalance,
Most experts have followers like sheep herds!
Fragile brain, leaky membranes or hormal flow,
Or is it really the right hemisphere collapsed?
Could it be that negative perception of reality?
Has this social animal’s self-esteem prolapsed?
