Dear Happiness,

You come and you go

to and fro,

Wherever you go

You make a pro,

In people's lives

They need you Happiness,

Wherever they go

You bring them up
Whenever they’re down,

Happiness I’m writing to ask for advice,

Since you’re so awesome

Can you heal people who are sick?

Who are too sick to be happy?

Too sick to get out of bed

Too sick to talk to friends

Needing to take pills

To feel happy,

Can you find a way

To make the sickness go away?

Because all I’m doing is killing them

Feeding them lies, saying

“You’re nothing to this world.”

And

“You’re not as pretty as her.”

So please,

Help me stay away

From those beautiful people

 

Sincerely,

Depression
