Weight
I lay here
Upon my bed
Thinking
Staring up ahead
Why am I so fascinated with death?
I get lost in the darkness
As the weight sets in
I'm back in this hole
All over again
I'm stuck
I try to cry for help
Instead a small “I'm fine” escapes
My chapped lips with loose words
Depression is a heavy word
It weighs down your world
And as I lay
I start to think
Maybe I truly do
Deserve all this
