A Cry of the Depressed
Can you hear me?
Do I have a voice?
Can you see me?
Everyone has a choice.
Is anyone there?
Above or below?
Do you really care?
Or do you go with the flow?
I spend my mornings weeping.
I spend my nights silently crying.
With the secrets I am keeping
To myself I am lying.
I appear to be happy.
While always fighting.
You tell me I'm sappy
But seriously, lose the lighting.
It is how I hide how I truly feel
The feeling don't always leave
To my knees I will keel.
Until I can truly believe.
The way I see me is not true.
The way I feel about me is not real.
All I need is you.
And to you I shall appeal.
