I Love You More Than Life

I gave it my all to overcome These mental illnesses one by one This constant struggle felt by some The silent killer, a fight rarely won I gave it a shot to live and love To follow the signs I was sent from above It all fell apart when push came to shove Before my own eyes, it turned to dust I gave up myself and my own piece of mind Let go of it all, only to find You gave up on me and left me behind We both know it wasn’t a waste of time I ran out of steam Depression took over Now I’m all alone Good luck staying sober You know that I’m weak Mental illness destroys me I may never quite recover Rios my only destiny I love her more than life itself D.R.L.
