Goodbye Depression


Dear Lily,
 
Oh Lily, if only I knew, 
you gave me no clue
How you felt every day and night
Oh how you lived without the light
every morning, cutting yourself too deep
every night, crying yourself to sleep
you seemed so happy just yesterday
who knew you felt this way?
that you had all this fear and pain
wished it could wash away like rain
you were a sister, daughter and a friend
why did this have to end?
