Poem -
Depression
I tell you I'm tired
That I didn't sleep much last night
Little miss insomniac
What reason do I have to lie?
Truth is I didn't
I'm just tired more
Than from only lack of sleep
I'm tired of breathing
Tired of being me
I'll tell you it's nothing
Just a little scratch
And you won't question
Cause it's easier to believe
It was just the cat
Why would it be worth it anyway
To mutilate my skin
On any give day?
I'll tell you it's nothing
That I'm perfectly fine
And nobody thinks twice
Nobody wants to hear me whine
Yes I'll be okay
Just not sure at what cost
Because this battle I'm fighting
Might just be lost

Hey T.C.!!......this is a truly well delivered piece on one of the most powerful dual illnesses known to us!!..... Depression & Cutting often go hand in hand.....I had a friend go through this and attempt suicide twice...... she eventually got over it!!..... She told me once that 'Cutting' was a young persons disease of the mind...... don't know if that's true but your poem reminded me of her!!...... anyway, I hope that writing this helped in some way for you!!......ALL STARS!!..... well done dear poet sister!!......LOVE and ROCKETS!!......T xo ?☀✴✳♥
