Depression hit in the A.M. Feeling on edge, like I'm meant to be in an asylum. Tears flooded my cheeks and my fists clenched. A flashback with a razor played in my head; a memory that wasn't meant to be missed. But Déjà vu came into play when I grabbed the sharpest knife with the most painful ridges to rid my inner strife. I pressed it deep into my skin but my skin wouldn't slit. I kept trying, grinding the blade against my wrist. Feeling all the pain yet it wouldn't budge; I knew there had to be somebody watching over me from above. So I put back the most dangerous knife, that only left the slightest bump, to remind me I deserve to go on with life; there's no need to be rough. So this one's to my God, and the angels surrounding me, thank you for the love and protection. I was blind to it but now I see.
