Depression

Depression is like a recession A time where my plastic smile suffers from confession It melts away and the ugly truth is exposed Like stumbling blocks ,I struggle to keep myself composed Im a sad song,questioning my existence Was pain my only destiny,I speak with the one in me Drowning in something I can't even see People don't know,void is like a whole galaxy A lonely one,stranded ,im the voice in the dark Pain plays me like a violin It disguises my rage with the calm Can you truly see my future by reading my palm Because all I see are scars born from words Like a cd with scratches all over I replay them over and over,then finally They submerge and strangle me,I go through this trance That they call depression, By this time im at the very edge,trying hard not to fall But Satan is babysitting my soul I just wonder if I can ever feel whole Because something is indeed missing, Stubborn I deny all of this, I take pride as my skin,so you know its thick I don't know if I can ever be saved I just know I have begun co-existing with whatever this is Its the reason why Im so cold,someone left my heart open
