Depression is familiar Allowing me to hide in it's comfort Escaping reality Playing a happy pretend Depression is my friend Listening my story Allowing me to wallow in it Not shaming me for shedding tears Depression is an old blanket Keeping me safe in its warmth Holding on tightly promising not to let go Not afraid to tell you it's ok To feel this crap to feel sorry Depression is back To remind you how pathetic life is Showing what I'm worth Telling me darkness is my only friend Depression is taking over Acceptance is welcoming me To give myself to it's glory To have a name for how I feel Depression is facing reality To need help but where you gonna find it.
