Depression has taught me that

life can sadden you and even madness at times is sadness masked.

At times we are sad and get mad to not get hurt.

It is human nature to hide our feelings

because feelings are fragile and bound to get hurt.

Depression has taught me that

if you neglect what you love too much too often

you will grieve it’s presence because you experience it’s absense.

What we experience does affect what we feel

whether we like or whether we hate to admit that or not.
