A few poems I wanted to share...

The first poem was written by me. It was written quickly (about 15 min cuz it's free verse), so I might make changes to it later. 

What is depression?

Depression
That clings onto your heart,
Dragging you down
Without mercy.

Sadness
Without Tears,
Death
Without fear.

Dark thoughts
Linger in your head,
Imagination
To extremes.

Is life
Solely an illusion?
Perhaps
Only a game?

Others
Grasps onto hope,
But hope
Has vanished from you. 

The second poem and third poem aren't written by me, but they are some of my favorites. They're written by the same person. Tell me if any of you recognize them. 

The Lady who Knows Everything

An old tale tells of a lady who wanders Earth.
The Lady who Knows Everything.
A beautiful lady who has found every answer,
All meaning,
All purpose,
And all that was ever sought.

And here I am,

a feather

Lost adrift the sky, victim of the currents of the wind.

Day after day, I search.
I search with little hope, knowing legends don't exist.
But when all else has failed me,
When all others have turned away,
The legend is all that remains – the last dim star glimmering in the twilit sky.

Until one day, the wind ceases to blow.
I fall.
And I fall and fall, and fall even more.
Gentle as a feather.
A dry quill, expressionless.

But a hand catches me, between the thumb and forefinger.
The hand of a beautiful lady.
I look at her eyes and find no end to her gaze.

The Lady who Knows Everything knows what I am thinking.
Before I can speak, she responds in a hollow voice.
"I have found every answer, all of which amount to nothing.
There is no meaning.
There is no purpose.
And we seek only the impossible.
I am not your legend.
Your legend does not exist."

And with a breath, she blows me back afloat, and I pick up a gust of wind.

Happy End

Pen in hand, I find my strength.
The courage endowed upon me by my one and only love.
Together, let us dismantle this crumbling world
And write a novel of our own fantasies.

With a flick of her pen, the lost finds her way.
In a world of infinite choices, behold this special day.

After all,
Not all good times must come to an end.

The third poem ("Happy End") was written for me.

Good ideas. Maybe you should make it briefer and better (rhyme-wise). Also, maybe an essay will communicate your ideas better. 

Lol, thanks for the suggestions. I didn't intent to write an essay. The poem came to me a few nights ago, so I just decided to write it down. I must admit that the poem is a bit bland and it doesn't have any direction.

Second and third poems weren't written by me. I just wanted to share them.
