A Planned But Unscheduled End
every so often
when my depression is harsh
i say goodbye instead of goodnight
its a difference so sudtle
not many even notice enough for a second thought
i think of it all the time
how easily i could just end it all
but i havent done it
i fear that i will one day
but for now i am surviving
i stay alive for any reason i can grasp
i try to live
i try to feel alive
i have my good moments
but more often i feel fear and uncertainty
maybe im not good enough for anything
it all adds up and weighs me down
i try to use good things as a float
but im kept under by my doubts and i sink
down
im pulled so far under
i drown in my own sorrow and fear
an existence ive been used to for so long
maybe one day i can learn to breath under my sea of doubts
or gather the strength to push through to the surface
but until then
goodbye
