Hush. . . no one must know
That I am at war with my own mind.
No one must know
That I am fighting a losing battle,
Stuck in a brain that wants me dead.

For how long I can keep it up
Only God knows.
But I will probably be dead
Before anyone even begins to wonder.
But hush. . . no one must know.
This poem describes how depression makes you ashamed and scared of your own mind.  How incredibly lonely it is to keep it all inside but not having the courage to let anyone know your DARK secret.
