Why I Don't Ask for Help From Friends Without Depression
He picked me up in his car,
And asked me what happened,
That's always the first question,
First thing that people think to say.
They want to know why,
Tears have formed in my eyes,
And roll down my face.
They want to know where,
The pain is coming from,
So that they might stop it.
They want to know who,
I am thinking about,
When I claim to feel alone.
I'll tell you what, why, where, and who.
What happened is nothing,
It came out of nowhere.
The why is nothing,
There is no cause.
The where is nowhere,
Nowhere they can reach.
The who is no one,
At least that's what I feel like.
I know you don't believe me,
When I answer your questions.
I told you the truth,
You just don't understand depression.
Just like him,
You have that look in your eyes,
And close your mouth,
Deciding not to push it for now.
But just wait until next time,
If I give you the chance.
And you will ask again.
Not realizing your questions,
Only remind me that I am broken.
