Depression


Anger.

Disgust.

Guilt.

Hate.

 

Having all these things on my heart on a daily can't be healthy.

 

Suicidal.

 

But nobody knows.

How I make it through everyday,

Only God knows.

 

I wanna die.

I wanna fly.

 

But the consequence that comes with it,

Is too deadly.

 

I must stick it through.

I must conquer these feelings.

 

They can't hold me any longer.

 

All these feelings,'

let out on a piece of an innocent tree.

 

They can't hold me any longer.

 

Injustice.

Why me?

 

I must stay strong for my family.

It never hurts to dream.

 

Carry on,

have faith & you'll see

God has a plan for you and me.
