Truth
Depression is fun
said no one ever
Its never ending
And believe me its clever
Its not one sad day
Or a moment gone wrong
Its a feeling forever
One that strings me alone
My depression wears smile
Even laughter sometimes
Not just teardrops and darkness
To fill all my rhymes
Depression is weird
As I´m sure you'll agree
It is complex and frustrating
Because it wont set me free
It will hold tight and hurt you
Make you think you're alone
It'll leave scars and claim you
Say you're just accident prone
My depression lies
And cheats me each day
Makes me think no one loves me
Despite what they say
So I shut off my brain
And shove it deep down
Yet somehow i miss it
When my depressions not around
My depression hurts when I keep it
But I miss it when its gone
No matter what I try
I simply cannot move on
My depression is part of me
Laughter tears and all
So I´ll smile with every sorrow
And rise each time I fall
Because although it hurts me dearly
And its scars won't seem to fade
It's through my broken pieces
My true beauty is made.
