Scattered Package

If depression came in a package it might have the prettiest outer layer. If depression came in a package it might have the brightest red bow. If depression came in a package it would be advertised by a forked tongue. Don't be fooled by the paper it lies over top of danger. If the package should unravel and scatter where you stand, you will soon see the demons. Don't let them take your hand. If the package should unravel and scatter where you stand, you will feel thousands of blades cutting your spirit, heart, and hands. So don't let it unravel; the package deserves the hottest of flames, because the dangers it holds inside are death of the soul, by name. So don't let it unravel; the package deserves the hottest of flames, because the dangers it holds inside are anything but a good game. If depression came in a package it won't at first expose itself by name, but the sooner it scatters like ashes in the wind the less you suffer from shame.
