Depression
By: Desiree’ Bisby

Depression is an illness that takes control of your life
Unwanted feelings and thoughts are trapped in your mind.
Some days are easy and you feel no pain
And other days you wish you’d get hit by a train.
You walk down the halls with a smile on your face
Nobody bothers asking, “Are you okay?”.
Each day is filled with the sadness and loneliness
But soon enough you will meet Gods great holiness.

Free
By: Desiree Bisby
When I rest I will be free
Free from the pain that you have caused me
Free from the heartbreak and misery
Free from the depressing, suicidal thoughts nobody could see
Free because I no longer have to be who you want me to be

I'm Done
Done trying to be the person you want me to be
Done pretending to be happy.
I'm done acting like everything is going to be alright
When I cry myself to sleep every night.
I'm done staying up till sunrise because I'm scared of the dark
Done trying to heal my broken heart.
I'm done listening to people telling me it will be okay
They don't understand what I deal with every day.
I'm Done

Tired
By: Desiree Bisby
Tired of being used
Tired of feeling abused.
Tired of being unhappy
Because everyone knows I’m pretending to be laughing.
Tired of being stressed
Tired of the emptiness that I feel, because I am depressed.
