Depression


Depression a black dark wave of regret and sadness

What did i do wrong? Why wasn't it enough?

Why wasn't i enough?

Some days shine bright and my future seems brighter

Other days seem so dark not even the brightest light can break it

I look around and envy almost all that can smile without forcing it

It's hard to think back to a time that the darkness was never there

A time where there was always sunshine and no rain

A time when everything just seemed to be clear and make sense.

Take me away from my bed and take me somewhere i can smile.

Depression i deal with you everyday please just please just go away.
