Depression

This feeling,

It takes me over.

I feel run down,

Even run over.

Even when i'm happy,

I still feel sad.

I hate feeling,

So bad.

I just want,

One good night.

Please just show me,

Show me that light.

i want my life,

To take flight.

I used to be,

So bright.

Depression,

It over-comes me,

It consumes me.

But depression,

Is not me.

It will not beat me.

Some day i will beat it,

Depression,

Will not stay forever.

I will find that light,

And remain bright.

Taking flight,

Being me.

And only me.

Depression has been one of my longest battles to ever deal with in life. it does consume me a lot and i try not to let it. but it does happen. i'm trying to control it to the best of my abilities, but some days i just can't handle everything. and i just break down. i'm trying everything in my power to remain strong. for me and myself, and my family. i have been through so many things in life, depression being the worst, i never would wish it on anyone. to anybody out there battling depression, you are not alone, there is always someone out there that will listen. including me, if anyone needs or wants to talk, contact me directly.
