	THE EMBERS OF DEPRESSION DEPRESSION OVERCOMES ME, AND THE DAYS ARE ALL ALIKE, EAT I MUST AND SLEEP I WILL, AND WOULD THAT NIGHT WERE HERE. BUT AH, TO LIE AWAKE AND HEAR THE SLOW HOURS STRIKE, WOULD THAT IT WERE DAY AGAIN WITH TWILIGHT NEAR. DEPRESSION OVERCOMES ME, AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO. THIS OR WHAT YOU WILL IS ALL THE SAME TO ME, BUT ALL THE THINGS THAT I BEGIN I LEAVE BEFORE I’M THROUGH. THERE IS LITTLE USE IN ANYTHING, AS FAR AS I CAN SEE. DEPRESSION OVERCOMES ME AND THE NEIGHBOURS KNOCK AND BORROW, AND LIFE GOES ON FOREVER LIKE THE GNAWING OF A MOUSE. AND TOMORROW, AND TOMORROW, AND TOMORROW. THERE’S THIS LITTLE VILLAGE, AND THIS LITTLE HOUSE. DEPRESSION OVERCOMES ME, AND I’M UNABLE TO RELATE, AND PEOPLE GO AND DO AND CHOOSE I CANNOT PLAY MY ROLE. BUT STAY AND TOIL WITHIN MY MIND THE PRISON I CREATE, THERE MUST BE FREEDOM SOMEWHERE, BECAUSE LOVE WAS IN MY SOUL. DEPRESSION OVERCOMES ME, AND I FEAR I’LL SUFFOCATE, I TRY TO RUN BUT LEGS OF LEAD OBSTRUCT MY ROUTE AHEAD, LIKE A GIANT TSUNAMI IT COMES TO SIGN MY FATE, AND FREE MY TORTURED BODY, BY SEEING I AM DEAD. HAS LIFE GONE AND LEFT ME? HAS THE PHOENIX FLOWN?
