Enjoying a Hellhole

This is a poem about how I live, struggle, and "cope" with my depression. I'm posting this on SoFurry because I know there are a few furries out there that are struggling like me. hang in there


Funny the way things can be

When life seems to be nothing but paradoxes

I could have the time of my life

Whilst my depression gnaws at me like it does everyday

I smile and laugh at jokes

When my conscious tells me I'm the fool

I love hanging out with others

Yet isolation is my pure bliss

I enjoy life and finding explanations

Inside I wait for the day I perish

I can be enjoying a board game with family

Then I cry on my bed out of sheer hopelessness

Sometimes I look around my bedroom

Trying to spot something I can end my life with

But I have those few, almost sacred loved ones

That I know could not go on without my presence

These loved ones of mine are my biggest hope

I have more sentimental value for some than my family

Those who can understand me comfortably

And be there for me when I need them most

Thank you.
