living with depression

Some days may be good others may be bad 

however most of the time you just feel sad 

slowly feeling your self changing and you don't know why 

your just left trying to hold back a cry

always wondering why bother and try  

suddenly all you want to do is sleep 

so you can forget about your thoughts which are deep

everything becomes an effort

so hiding away in bed is a comfort 

you become isolated away from everyone 

when really all you need is someone 

you begin to realise you have no-one 

you truly feel like you are done. 

you can never see the light at the end 

it takes time for your mind to mend 

you feel sometimes you don't want to be alive 

and no longer want to try to survive 

its a hard and lonely way of life 

its so tempting to end it with a knife 

but it can only get brighter 

and the darkness your in will become lighter
