It has sharp claws
invisible
deep, dark eyes
invisible
fangs fatal
invisible

I smile often
cry-invisible
I walk often
stumble-invisible
I look happy
sadness-invisible

It is real
it has name
it stays with me
rides on my soul
Depression
Invisible!


You can read a factual post about DEPRESSION here.

I am taking my blog to the next level with Blogchatter’s #MyFriendAlexa.

  2. Depression is real. I so wish people accepted it as a reality and not some *mental issue*.

  6. Depression is indeed invisible and is still not considered "real" in India. We need to talk about it more. Your factual post on depression too is very well written.
