I've hated winter for a long time and am pretty convinced I have SAD (I meet the criteria according to wikipedia, heh), but it is so hard to explain to people who DON'T have SAD -- they seem to think it's just a dislike of cold, rather than a energy-draining daily horror. I wrote this poem today and for the first time I feel like I have expressed what it really feels like, so I wanted to share.
"Distance"
