Depression is Grave
I am a desolate girl who hides behind a smile.
I wonder what other people's lives are like.
I see the bad consequences, not the good.
I want to be a good person.
I am a desolate girl who hides behind a smile.
I pretend I am always okay, so my family will not worry.
I feel homesick even at "home".
I touch my bed and I never want to leave it.
I worry that my life will not be successful.
I cry over the little things, not the big ones.
I am a desolate girl who hides behind a smile.
I understand that nothing lasts forever in this world.
I say so many things that I later regret.
I dream of having so much more to live for.
I try to see the good in life, but sometimes it is hard.
I hope to live in a city, somewhere with a faster pace.
I am a desolate girl who hides behind a smile.
