There comes a time
In everyday,
Where sense of reality
Withers away,

In hours or seconds-
Days or years,
Your soul will awaken,
Along with your tears.

Red as the roses
And weeping like willows,
The windows start crying
While your lungs start to billow.

But when this time comes,
And you cant get away,
Please stick around
For at least one more day.

I know things are hard,
But they will be okay,
Please let down your guard,
We will make it someday.

I don't understand how people treat depression like a joke.
It isn't funny.
It isn't something small that someone can just "get over".

Depression is a very serious and very real mental condition.
It isn't okay.
People who suffer from this condition aren't suffering for attention.

These people spend every day of their lives trying to overcome it.
Is it still funny?
They don't get the privileges other people get.

They wake up each morning wishing life would end.
Is it still okay?
When will humanity come into play so we can get some respect?
Just feeling really down right now...
Can you hear that?
Time passing
Without a care?

Can you feel that?
Your time,
That's slowly running out?

Tock

Can you see that?
How long it's been
Since they texted back?

Have you felt this?
Clocks slowly
Counting your days
Hours
Minutes
Seconds

Till you're gone
Listen to them

Time is short
Make the most of it
Talking to you
Is the best part of my day

I've only known you
A little while
But that was all it took

You are my best friend

We've never even
Truly met
But still,

You are my best friend

You are great
You are amazing
You are wonderful

I don't know
What I would do
Without you

You are my best friend

So this will be
The last,
'To my new friend' poem

Because next time,
It will be called,
'To my best friend'
I will never leave you.... You are my best friend
Hello to
Hell

A simple hello
Can lead you to hell

Good to
Goodbye

All good things
Eventually leave

Word to
World

A kind word
Can give you the world

Simple changes
Make all the difference
In the world
We are no longer friends because of 'minor changes'
