Major Depressive Disorder
I live with this outdated illness
That keeps following me around
Just when I think it’s gone for good
It creeps up without a sound
If you only knew how it killed me
But cruelly kept me alive
You would know that waking up
Is as good as fighting to survive
Where did I go this time
And how long will it take to find me
Will these pills give me the will to live
Or how about all the ******* therapy
Sometimes I wish it was cancer, or a tumor,
Something to prove I’m not well
Some redeeming affliction
To paint a portrait of this sickly hell
And when it hits the way it does,
Life gets put on the shelf
What kind of illness is this, where the
Main symptom is losing yourself
