Depression

I am banging on the walls.
Walls you know I cannot shatter.
I don't count on wrecking balls,
I give up. I've lost the battle.

I'm so messed up, I don't feel
Anything besides the cold.
I'm like fish caught on the reel.
Splashing, bashing while you hold.

It's like living in a movie,.
Everything is black and white.
Though I struggle, nothing's moving.
I don't know what's wrong or right.

Feeling broken, I have hit
Lowest point of one's existence,
But I will escape this pit
Without anyone's assistance.

Victory is not an option.
You just fight until the end,
Even if it seems false notion
You do not give up or bend.

Five stages of grief is a series of emotional stages experienced when faced with impending death or death of someone. The five stages are DENIAL, ANGER, BARGAINING, DEPRESSION and ACCEPTANCE. The end of relationship is like experiencing a death, of sorts. Therefore I present you the third part of my personal revelation - Depression.

Pretty neat and hard hitting. As some with depressive disorder I got to say you've nailed the feeling pretty accurately.
