Depression

It’s dark and lonely in my mind the light I can not see Sounds are getting fainter there is no one here with me Tears flow heavy like a late afternoon rain shower I can hold them back no longer; I just do not have the power My heart grows weary of the pain I feel more everyday Neither pills, nor therapy can take this pain away My tissue box is empty I’ve thrown it on the floor Even knowing that I have no energy to go and get some more This feeling drains my body, my mind and all my soul I wait and wonder will it end and once more I can feel whole Away inside my mind I’m lock until I am released Depression has a hold on me when will this torture cease The pain I feel is not just mental, for on my body toll is taken The dark cloud hangs above me and these feelings can not be shaken Depression has a hold on me when will this torture cease?
