Depression

Surrounding myself with a wall of silence
Breathing seems pointless when having
A heart
Torn apart
That is punctured

Dreams fill my head but 
Crushed
By a sudden force of sadness
Keeps me from success
It came from nowhere

A life filled with tears
A nonexistent happiness
Smacks me
I can’t break free
Help seems hopeless for me

Everything I do
Seems like a disappointment
No escape
A videotape
That can’t rewind

I just want to end it now
