Depression aint no flu. <br />It sticks to my body like super glue. <br />Eating away at my soul. <br />Making me a former shadow of myself. <br />People say snap out of it. <br />You'll be ok. <br />I wish I could be ok <br />I wish I could shake this vermin away. <br />I wish I could be free <br />But depression isn't easily shaken. <br />Depression aint no flu<br /><br />Amy Louise Kerswell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/depression-aint-no-flu/
