Surviving Depression
Within despair,
through the dark,
it stings deep inside
No one appreciates
the anguish I endure,
resulting in me
baring the burden alone
With no respite,
no one wants to see
the blackness
that sullies my soul
Only I can pull myself
through each hurricane
of torrential suffering
My only saving grace
is blind optimism
The belief it will get better
and I will be here tomorrow
