depression is like your best friend
it follows you wherever you go
constantly in your head telling you you're not good enough
it's that best friend that takes ahold of you
making you feel loved and cared about
then throwing you in the mud
depression beats you when you're down
you feel no hope
depression is accompanied by her significant other named anxiety
anxiety gets in your head even more
you feel yourself falling
anxiety tells you they don't want you here
you're not good enough
you don't belong
they hate you
then pulls you in closer
"I'll never leave you"
this pain hurts
unlike physical pain
it's like you want to feel but you're lost in a sea of emotion
these emotions run through my head
I scream
I beg
I plead for my life
it seems there is no end in sight
they say there's a light at the end of this dark tunnel I'm in
why can't I see it?
I reach for someone to pull me out
depression and anxiety pulls me back in
I'm drowning
I feel the air in my lungs
but I'm not breathing
my heart racing
tears streaming
I'm still broken
someone save me from this pain
before I save myself
the blood trickling down my arm
so beautiful
so real
I finally feel
too deep they say
its not deep enough keep going
I feel more
I start to fade away
I see the light
I am free
