Dear Depression
Dear dEpreSSion
I saw you called today
Sorry for ignoring you
But I am no longer available to play
I no longer want to hear one word you have to say
I see you left a message
I’m sure you made it pleasant
Offering just enough incentive that I respond to you
However I’ve changed a bit and I’m not falling for you
I’m sure you will try again
Offering a more alluring spin
Using my own mind to get in
Pretending we are the best of friends
Hear the good news
NEVER AGAIN!
Never again will you be my god
Never again will you numb my heart
Never again will you make my life hard
Never again will you tear my relationships apart
No more will I sit and cry for no reason
Cold hearted through every single season
Forcing me to pretend I am happy
Praying to God no one will need me
The days are over of pretending I am not home
As I sit in the dark all alone
You’ve had your day
You’ve done your damage
And today I take authority
My mind has changed
I’ve endured the pain
And now the lights are on
Your days of torment are dead and gone
So just leave me alone
You will no longer hinder me
I will not be held back by your tactics
I will not support you with my habits
I right now denounce your reign of terror
I have been made victorious – I AM A CONQUOROR!
