Get through


I spend every day trying to get through

another day with depression, a suicidal thought or 2

now don't think that im complaining or that I can't deal with stress

its just that right now, my life is nothing short of a mess

with school over my head, a job, and cerebral palsy

the first thing i do is hang up if  someone calls me

I've just been shutting out the world, but I might let in you

If you can convince me that theres a reason that I should get through
