Depression You are special You are the most powerful shield I have You freeze time until I'm ready You encase my heart in carbon You protect me You protected me from the chaos of my reality when I was living it You took the burden of what I could not handle When I needed it You supported me When no one else would You were my friend This was six years ago I have people that love me now I found my tribe You doubt my progress You hold me back You don't belong here anymore It's time to move on It's not you It's me I no longer need your help I no longer need you to protect me I no longer want your protection I am ready I am ready to face my demons I am ready to feel my pain I am ready to discover my emotions I am ready to be sad I am ready to be mad I am ready to be happy Depression I love you but we aren't meant to be This is goodbye Farewell Depression
