I am tired
But I can’t sleep
I am never full
So I always eat

I am angry for no reason at all
At people who have done me no wrong

This is depression
It grabs you
It pulls you under and changes your thoughts

You are not you
You are it
It controls you
It tells you what to wear
It tells you how to think
It tells you what to say

Meanwhile you fade away
They don’t recognize you
You don’t recognize you

You are a stranger to them
To everyone
Even to yourself
Because you aren’t you
This is depression
