Not a day went by

Without me feeling

The same place I lie

Focused on the ceiling

At the corner of my eye… sorrowful rain

Down my arm blood trickled… with no pain

I was certain I would die alone

I longed so much for love to be shown

Consumed by depression, I began to cry

Ready to give up, I wanted to die

Walking, head down… I was a nobody

Always viewing the glass as being half empty

But the fire within me grew strong

Maybe, all this time I was wrong

I decided to give it one more try

And so, five years soon rolled by

Now older, I was no better than before

Still so lonely, and heart still tore

My depression hid behind my empty smile

My bottled emotions became one big pile

Then I met a girl, so joyous and kind

She became the only thing that filled my mind

With a laugh so adorable and eyes so precious

A smile so beautiful and hair so luscious

Soon a friendship grew

I wanted to show I could be true

But how could someone so divine

Even think of being mine

I panicked, ‘til delay

And before I got the chance

She already went away

Depression began to taunt… a silly prance

But for some reason… I was not sad

As long as she was happy… I’d be glad

…Eventually the relationship did come to end

And still… I wanted to be more than a friend

We began to talk more

My heart still sore

I felt lonely and lame

She told me she felt the same

Opposites attract they say…

But we decided to do it our way

 

One night under stars so peaceful

We said something to each other so meaningful

She asked who the girl I liked was, and I said “you”

She replied with an “awe” and said “I like you too”

I never dreamt I would see the day

I had but one thing left to say

And so the following morning

I spent all day thinking

About how that night was the greatest by far

Lost in thought to the point that I almost got hit by a car…

It was time to check for destiny

Time to see if it were meant to be

Even though I was certain it would be a no

I didn’t want to regret not asking so…

Nervously I asked “do you want to go out”

She asked me what I was talking about

I told her my love for her was strong and pure

And just like that, she said “sure’

Suddenly the depression that caused my heart to ache

Drifted away and happy did wake

But still, I felt it would not last

But why still worry of the past

I thought to myself, it would be for the best

If she broke up with me, when she lost interest

Our time together I will forever cherish

And if you must, I promise I will not perish

But her love for me was like a dove

A dove that soared so high above

Her hugs so warm

with a lovely form

Holding hands, no better a moment

But still… something so very urgent

Depression was still there, so awful it seems

Though less, it occurred more often than my dreams

And it came to me, a great appeal

That maybe a kiss could break the seal

We talked about it, and she seemed fine

A simple task, two lips combine

We stared for a while, and then I leaned in

But she looked at me crazy... as though I was kin

She then gave me a kiss on the cheek

I felt the feeling of being cold and weak

Along with a long lost feeling, pain

Something I missed, was I now sane…

An instant replay of the even played in my head

I was an idiot. I rather be dead

Why didn’t our lips meet, am I just a fool

To think that you loved me, or am I a tool…

I reached for something sharp, I wanted a knife

But the kiss on the cheek, told me you were my wife

So no longer did I feel cold or pain

I tested it out, by walking through rain

And although I think her kiss is the key

To release my depression, to set it all free…

For her, I will no longer force a kiss

As much as I Know, I will truly miss

For her, I will live with depression…

I will no longer show its expression

Because she makes my heart sing…

Because… she is my everything…
