I'm done with you controlling me Or telling me I'm not good enough I'm done with you only letting me see Things in me that make my self esteem so rough I have tried with all my heart To convince myself that I'm fine But with you here, I can't set myself apart It seems I'm running out of time I wish you would leave And never come back I wish I would've never believed You telling me the things I lack I am trying so hard To not care about what you say I have made it so far But I just want to give up some days Here I am in recovery Doing what I can Working on this discovery To fight for who I really am

Dear Depression,
I'm done with you controlling me Or telling me I'm not good enough I'm done with you only letting me see Things in me that make my self esteem so rough I have tried with all my heart To convince myself that I'm fine But with you here, I can't set myself apart It seems I'm running out of time I wish you would leave And never come back I wish I would've never believed You telling me the things I lack I am trying so hard To not care about what you say I have made it so far But I just want to give up some days Here I am in recovery Doing what I can Working on this discovery To fight for who I really am
I wrote this while in rehab and I'm pretty proud of it
