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.
