Depression
a poem i did just cause i needed to. hope you enjoy
Depression
Fuck, depression man
That's what's going on here
It makes you do some fucked up shit
Now I don't usually curse like this
But what do you expect I'm in low, pitiful state
I'm listening to break up songs and trying to see straight
It doesn't help without my glasses
And an empty wine glass
But heck at least it's not too extreme
At least you haven't found my body in a stream
The insults I get are just fuel for the fire
But they will get replaced by desire
The desire to be accepted because I'm different
I've met many mean people in life
And all they do is just push me over the edge
Sometimes I just take it
Then when my family asks what's wrong
I fake it
I fake happiness and play ping pong
I fake glee and act like I'm free
I'm not free
I still have to deal with their shit
But that's life right?
Wrong
Because you can be what I once was
A taker
A cutter
A target
Or you can stand up to them
Only to realize that when you do
It causes more trouble
That's what happened to me and they call me a pussy
If they saw the scars on my arm from the pellet gun
I bet they would think differently
Now, my fursona is a fox
So, most people associate me as being submissive to everyone
Well that's not the case
I think I'm free spirited
Determined
Mind strong
And lovable
You laugh
I knew you would
Not because you are like them
But unlike them you actually care
And that's all I ask for
No one likes depression especially when it nearly causes the end of your life
But I've found a way to help me with it before it gets to severe
No, I don't eat grass like a deer
I write about it
I watch lion king
Because there is adversity in it
I talk to people
And try to stay afloat so I can see through the peephole
I drink sometimes and lay in bed
I shoot my bow and arrow
Instead of myself
I don't think I would get to the point where I killed myself
Because I know there people who love me
And to those of you going through the same thing
Do something fast and you will be fine
P.S.
Don't think no one loves you because that's not true, your family loves you and we do too.
