Untitled Depression

Been down so long it made me want to get high
I like to calculate my moves, but I always struggled in math
Drinking coffee to wake me because it seems to be the only thing to make me, feel alive 
So, I water my mocha flowers
Wondering if they will feel the same thing
Then maybe I wouldn't be so alone 
Like the sword in the stone
Sometimes I just want someone 
The right one to choose me 
It's like I'm bleeding but there is no wound 
An unexplainable pain, or an unhappy rain
Cloud
That can't stop crying 
To many use the figure of speech "I'm dying"
Without knowing what it feels like, when you feel as if you are one right turn from a car flip in the middle of traffic 
And it feels like the only right thing to do
When you wonder if there is a knife big enough to reach your heart because it does not seem to be working right 
When you don't have enough pills to oD on, so you go to the store looking for medicine that won't help you live 
When maybe trying drugs is the only option
When you're still going but the world is just stopping
No signs in sight
I'm crashing and not even angel wings could save this flight
Feel like I tried with all my might, but it didn't even matter
My matter is fading away
My aura is burnt out
My candle is just a full flame somebody forgot to put out
Hanging on for dear life
Dear God, please tell me what I'm doing right 
Because I can't find a reason to continue to hold on tight 
Ready to let go 
Whether it be the pain or optimism
Life is so simple and strange
p.s. be careful with what you gain...
