Down and low <br />Sinking in darkness <br />Pushing away all loved ones <br />Listening to a voice silently saying <br />There is no hope <br />There is no way to win <br />Entering a dark room <br />The door shuts behind <br />The windows draped <br />Blocking any ray of light <br />Despair builds <br />Desire hope and faith long gone <br />Death standing by with an eerie grin <br />Pointing to the path of the Devil's land <br />Nothing matters anymore <br />The battle is lost <br />Joy is but an illusion <br />Beauty a figment of imagination <br />At the end of the path <br />A ferry boat awaits on the river Hades <br />The ferry caption beckoning <br />With his bony hand <br />The fee paid by submission <br />As the captain oars the boat into the current <br />Demons are lined up along the banks <br />Taunting and laughing <br />Shouting praises to Depression <br />Waiting for an execution of the soul <br />Waiting for their new minion <br />Depression victorious again <br />Satan smiles with approval and pride <br />For he know Depression kills left and right<br /><br />Dimitri Jagodinski<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/demon-named-depression/
