Depression is like a bad habit. You don't want to be a slave to it, But its something you have to spend time on to get rid of A habit is an addiction; An obsession you can't help but crave Depression is a safe house Its the only thing that will always be Constant; never abandon you And that's a relieving feeling Happiness has never stayed long Enough to fall in love with me, But maybe I don't want it to If happiness is only temporary, I'd rather befriend my sadness, Because at least then I know it can't leave me.
