Depression, self-hatred It seems everyone is affected by it Whether personally Or if it is a family member Or friend Sometimes people don't even know They are affected by it Why is their brother so drawn away? Why does their mommy not want to get out of bed? Depression cannot always be prevented But it can be beaten With love If you show people you care They realize No matter how one it takes That they make a difference in someone's life And that can be enough To save them from taking their own So please Show people you love them And care about them Try not to be cold to people Because you don't know what they are dealing with And that sneer you give them Could be the last straw The one that breaks the camel's back And all their strength and willpower Comes crashing down Smile Give people something to hold on to Until they can find Hope
Just showing someone you care can help. It is important to show your love for your friends and family, but it can be just as important to show someone you don't know that you care.
