Depressions Love Poem

Remember when we first met? I gave you a new feeling I kept you in bed, but prevented you from sleeping I look over you as you lay there in distress You can't let go of me even though I'm who they say you should forget I approached you at a young age, Been here since you were put into foster care You tried fighting me off and it hurt that you wanted your family here Why did you want them when you have me? Don't you know I can be your lover, Brother, Sister, mother and Daddy? Don't begin to feel special, you're not the only one for me I have a lot of people who belong to me White, Black, Asian, Tall, Short, boy, girl, Young, Old, I don't discriminate I can't be seen, Yet I'm all over the place I stayed by your side when everyone else left I brought you close to your death But I'm glad you survived because I want to be with you some more You take tablets to try and get rid of me which I think is uncalled for Yet you push people away so you can be close to me You attacked me with a blade, but you bled and became crazy to everyone else You became a self-harm addict trying to fight me and it messed with you emotionally You blame me for this, but you can't blame anyone but your self I'm not going anywhere no matter how hard you fight I'll make you tired, but my friend anxiety will stop you sleeping at night You think of us as evil, but we only want to spend more time with you We already have our hostages, but I'm always looking for a mind that's new I fall in love with people and won't let them go I'll stay by their side even if they start to grow I'm still here after the suicide attempts, and after everyone else left Hi, I'm depression have we met?
