In Despair, In Love With Depression

In love, I once did find such sweet relief, But now I am consumed by bitter woe. My heart, once full of joy, now knows only grief, And all my happiness has turned to woe. The days stretch on, a never-ending strain, And I am lost in darkness, deep and vast. The weight of sadness, like a heavy chain, Binds me to this life, a prisoner at last. Depression is a thief that steals my will, And robs me of the light that once did shine. I long for hope, a way to break this chill, And find a path that leads to peace of mind. But for now, I'll bear this heavy load, And hope that love will guide me down the road.
