Depression and Loneliness!

You have an empty feeling that comes from within You long to share your feelings but no one will listen You reach out for open arms, but nobody is there Your tears fall to the ground, but nobody cares You pick up the phone, but have no one to call You feel overwhelmed; your mind is a crawl You lay in your bed in the light of the moon Just so you don’t see those who aren’t there for you I open my eyes But it’s better they stay closed For what misery today will bring I just don’t know Every day is like the one before I find I’m more hurt and lost Than ever before I can’t remember a time Where I was happy and smiling It feels like forever That inside I’ve been dying It’s strange But I’ve got used to it Being this way It’s part of my life now Depressed everyday I thrive on the sadness That tears at my heart I find some sort of comfort in it This pain that rips me apart I was once smiling Once warm And so care free Now I look at myself And say “What has happened to me?” What made me this way? So cold and lost Were the memories so bad That I forced them to be forgot How can I break free? And leave this behind I’m tired of being this way all the time I just want to be held close But I know I will push everyone away I’m too scared to let anyone in Because I know no one will stay How do you fix a soul Which has pieces long gone How do you fix a life That has gone so badly wrong How do you save me? When I’ve fallen so far How can you heal these wounds Which have turned to scars? This is who I am Every day and every night Sad isn’t it?
