Depression - Black and White

Gray, better say black. I believe everyone knows what these colours represent. Decay, lets say death. Sure, black can be beautiful put into a different context, and in a different life. But as the world is shaping, turning, it seems like it isn't just a ball that is rotating in an inkless space, but it seems like there is an invisible opening that gradually pours darkness on the "innocent" ball.
On top of that, we look like we enjoy the taste of black oil. We suck it in, we feel it, we live it. But we don't realize, that sooner or later, it starts to live as us, like a new beginning, where the beginning isn't pure red anymore, where it isn't warm anymore.
Instead of expressing warmness, we pollute the air, we pollute unfortunately not only with fume. We pour blackness on top of already weak colours.
Every moment seems like eternity, and every breath feels like waste. The window seems barely open, the wall seems too high for the light.
Even if we know the way out, it seems like the fog is too thick. We are looking for hundred hands to help us up, while a hundred hands are keeping us down.

Glad you think so Maxine :)
You are such a poetic writer, HyunSoung, you've really captured the feeling of depression with depth.Thank you Jennifer, i felt that depression is a pretty serious issue today.It is, I agree with you. I want to apologize for not writing an article about it, because I feel just as strongly as you do. I'm finding it hard to be a member of different groups, because obviously the group with the most points is higher up on the front page and gets more readers, so being in two groups means you're competing against yourself. I haven't quite figured out what to do about this!No problem Jennifer, no problem. Maybe you should just publish articles for the sake of writing it, or just post it according to the topic, if it lends more on the others group title post it there, if it fits more for self improvement post it here :)
