Yesterday
I spent hours and hours looking at nothing.
There wasn’t a dot of color, a hint of warmth in the image
I was sitting in front of
upon a wooden chair
that captivated me and held me prisoner
late yesterday afternoon.
Then
I heard a door slam,
I heard someone call my name
I shook my head, I rubbed my eyes
and that’s when I realized
I had been staring into a mirror
all day
yesterday afternoon.

Wow this is so powerful and you capture the rapture of a catatonic state in deep depression, which I too can relate to, living with bipolar disorder. Thank you for this and I wish you strength, faith and peace x
Thank you. I’m glad you understood where I was coming from. It’s not always easy to describe it.
