My skin broke out, my rooms a mess,
I’m starting to think that I’m depressed
I can’t get out of bed today,
But I say that I’m okay
The busy blur of my daily life,
Has become as blunt as a butter knife
As I try to style my hair,
I begin to think, I just don’t care
So please be here for when I fall,
And please be patient as I bawl
I’m sorry if I make you stressed,
It’s just my fault for being depressed
I feel like having depression ruins y relationship with people. As I start to care less about myself it impacts the way I treat others. I feel the need to explain myself to others but I just feel like I annoy them. So this silly little attempt of a poem is my way of making others understand my relationship with depression.

I wrap myself in this blanket
It keeps me warm yet it's cold
It makes me see yet I'm blind
It makes me smile yet it is why I am broken

I hide in this blanket
It's a shield, a disguise, a mask
It's my unknown guardian
No one can see me I'm hidden

Why are people so scared of this endless blanket
With this blanket I can create anything
This blanket is what is hidden behind our light
This blanket is beautiful but fear itself

My blanket is the unknown we know all so well
This is about what I hide behind

Today I couldn't wait to feel the excitement of guessing who wrote my valentines card,
but all I can feel is disappointment as nothing came in the post

Today I couldn't wait to smell some soft, fresh roses,
but all I can smell is the coffee that is pushing me through the day

Today I couldn't wait to hear a romantic ballad,
but all I heard was the busy fumbles of clumsy footsteps through the busy streets

Today I couldn't wait to see the way you looked at me after I spent hours deciding what top to wear,
but all I can see is my vision beginning to blur in the mad rush of daily life

Today I couldn't wait to taste the sweet, heart-shaped chocolates,
but all I can taste is the bitterness in my voice as I try and tell you how I feel

Today I was so excited to fall in love all over again,
but I'm falling out of love
Started this to improve my grammar so don't be too harsh with my grammar!
