Bottomless Pit

Depression Dark black hurricane that sucks you in and suffocates you A shattered heart left on an abandoned road A gloomy rainstorm that never ceases Depression Clings to your heart like a virus Clings to your tongue like a cat Clings to your mind, lingering in the shadows of your thoughts Depression A drowning sensations Can't breathe Can't think Can't sleep Can't feel Can't live Depression A trap A bottomless pit Emptiness All happiness gone Nothing but pain Depression Something you hide from others Pull down your sleeves, don't let them see Paint that smile on, don't let them see Don't be noticed, but want help Depression Reach up above where the dark stars shine on you Get pulled down deeper Voices saying you can't People pouring dirt on you making it harder to get out Get your nails dirty Claw your way out Rip your sleeves off Wipe the paint off your face Show the world what is actually wrong Depression Don't be afraid You're not alone.
