Dear Mr Depression
Please don’t think I am selfish
Because I chose to end my life
Arms hacked and sliced to pieces
Scarred from my friend “the knife”
Â
Each day was just a nightmare
I couldn’t see the light
Loneliness was the hardest part
Crying myself to sleep at night
Â
I can’t remember the last time I laughed
Or a smile where you seen my teeth
I never spoke to anyone
About the troubles that lay beneath
Â
I shut myself off and locked out the world
I had nobody but myself
Hearing angry voices talk inside my head
Attacking my mental health
Â
The voices reminded me how lonely I was
And told me this is how it will always be
I wish before I took my own life
I knew the voices were tricking me
Â
Depression was a daily battle
Fighting feels I never knew
In a bathroom cutting my wrist
Because my feelings over you
Â
You took my happiness
And made me feel blue
Dear Mr depression
I died for you

These last lines are absolute perfection. It's quite realistic and relateable. Especially for one such as myself surrounded by depression and unfortunately suicide. Really great write. All stars and pinned :)

Depression is something we have all experienced at one point , a subject we can all understand, I am glad you feel you can relate as I made some points depression almost tricks people into feeling isolated and alone and there is no other option but to commit suicide , there's always someone who can help <3 and I hope you have that someone to support you. I lost my aunty recently to suicide and its the worst loss a family could go through. Stay strong and thanks for your great feedback , much love xox
