Get the Help

Living with depression 
is so hard to take
Pretending that your happy
But knowing its all fake 

Each day you put on 
Your happy smile 
And carry on 
Like you've done 
For a while

You go through life 
Day by day
Plodding along 
It's the only way 


Making out all is well
But deep down inside
Your going through hell

To scared to speak
Or asked for help
Not wanting people 
To know how you felt

Outside your fine 
Inside your not
You tell urself 
You've lost the plot

No where to run
No where to hide
Keep Saying your fine
While Knowing you lied

But there is hope
There's People who care
Not just to listen 
But Advice to share


So don't give up
And don't give in
Don't let it beat you
Don't let it win

You still have so much
Life to live
And so much love 
That you can give

So ask for help 
Pick up that phone 
And just remember 
Your not alone
