Depression

My soul is dark as the night.
A world, without light
Or happiness or feelings.
Just Apathy.
Everywhere is misery.

A deep, somber gloom
Pervades every room.
Whether awake or asleep
I  weep.

I don’t want to live
If there is no God to give
Me respite
From my plight.

Give me peace.
Let life cease.
Quickly.

I’ll get it over and done
Not a second must run
In this misery I spend.
Death must be the end.
