silent
within shadows,
lurking in corners,
ready to dismantle
defences,
ready
to make
the big comeback,
the big return…
always ready
floating
in air,
seeking to shatter
sensitivities,
searching for
weaknesses,
a slight
vulnerability,
ready to darken
reality,
the mendacious
beast…
always ready

- A short poem about ever-lurking depression written in 2017. In 2020, I recorded a reading of it, added music, and made a video with new drawings. Don’t forget to take care of your Mental Health!
