Two Days

Yesterday was gloomy
and this is what I wrote.
Just a short note.
It will serve as marker
a pivot on which to ponder.


More of the same
And tomorrow is similar
A counterfeit smile
A lone tear
No reason
I’m just a little sad

I need something,
No interest, I’m jaded.
Deeply hollow
I don’t care.
Just bland
Is this depression?

Shallow is safe
Outward sturdy
Maintain control
Stifled, confined and restricted
Three ply of security
This is reality
