Depression

Sleeping beside me, floating o'er my head
Sitting beside me, swirling through my mind
Laying beside me, until the end

Like a the blood flowing in me, through my veins 
Leaking out in the excretion of tears 
The salty tang of you washing over in waves

Your lingering presence brings one to frustration 
It beacons like a light, praying for me to stay 
Passing time has seen it to be the other way
