Poems
Nov 2016
I slept with Depression
I slept with Depression
It started off w a break up
I was feeling lonely
You told me that you were
the only one who wanted to know me
I took you to my house but I didn't show my parents
Because they wouldn't like you and wouldn't understand
I took you to my room so that we could be alone
You started ******* and
showed me everything I could unfold
Started kissing on your lips of sadness
Rubbing on your body of confusion
Moved my hand down to your universe
I licked your stars and
Felt your gravitational pull
I tasted your black hole until
you finally came upon me and I fell into oblivion
When you finished I was under your control
I was stuck, Trapped
I was never good enough
My friends would ask
But talking about you was so tough
You made me look at life and question
Sent me in the wrong direction
You watched me self loathing
but always gave me your affection
You said you would be there for me and
told me what drugs to keep you near
You took advantage of my sorrows and
capitalized on my fear
I couldn't figure out how to please you
I always wanted to get out
I started to try to receive you
But you always showed some doubt
And as the skies turned dark
And then nights turned cold
I would sit with you in awe
Because u would never let me go.
