Depression

Here I am, jobless again
feeling there is no life ahead
everywhere I turn I find a blackness
Trying to get out of this hole
climbing and falling everytime
Feeling the worthlessness of my life 
spiraling out of control
How do I get out of this hole?
I don't know, no matter what I do 
I can't get ahead. I have a skill
that seems to me would be appreciated
but its not. I don't know how to get ahead
i struggle to hang on, but sometimes want to just give up
I just wish there was a way to get out of this darkness that is taking ahold of me
