Love Poem: Depression's Illusion

Depression's Illusion

The horizon
desolate
it matters not
what you were
memories
are just that
memories
a familiar road
peering within
inadequacy 
reaching out
to what end
tomorrow 
matters more
without performance
love has conditions
a battered heart
realizing
I am nothing 
life’s miscarriage
so what is left
redemption
maybe a tear
I do not think so
life moves on
a judgement
my memories
scattering
empty spaces
no hand awaits
erase me.
