I feel like a lot of people ask what depression feels like?

And during one of my downs I wrote this and I feel this is pretty close . I just wanna share so people understand and that if anyone can relate .

I feel like I'm in a hole; dark, concreate, hole. Filled with cracks and scratch marks left as if I was forgotten about just left there to suffer. Scratching, holding, gasping every inch, I feel the warmth glaze of the stars on which I wish I could lay beside of the hole and look up on my slivered back lay across the warmth of the concrete earth. On which I never look back to that dark damp void. But yet I'm on the bottom with everyday an erge to escape and free my heavy shackled lungs.

I understand this could be hard to understand however I see this has many different perspectives.but mostly I see it as the hole is where I’m all way at and when I do have highs/better feeling I just feel the the sun/stars(happiness )but I’m not out and anytime I could slip back down .
