Depression

All I really want in life Is to go back to my normal self To be the person I used to be Without the worry of my mental health Im gonna share a secret with you More of a sorta confession My self worth and sanity Has been stolen by depression It started with staying in Not wanting to socialize Isolated from family and friends Yet they were quick to critisize I wanted to do things my way I felt better on my own I missed important appointments I wished I had a clone I stopped sleeping at night Which of course, only made me worse I sunk deeper into depression And into tears I would burst Lack of sleep took over My head was buried in the sand Things went from bad to worse And there was no one To hold my hand People stopped calling me Their visits then no more They saw the empty space In the heart my Sleeve once wore Im still trying to get better Its easier with each new day I was too proud, to ask for help Its not an easy thing to say Im feeling good about myself today As I wrote this to share with you To try help you understand Depression is more than feeling blue The next person you hear of with this Could be someone close to your heart How do you think they would feel? If someone tore them apart
