"Hey, look this way," the deepest darkest monster of them all was whispering.

Grab that knife

Grab the pills

Grab the razor

Grab something that will take your life

 

I waited and waited for the demon to go

I kept waiting and waiting, but he wouldn't leave

He stayed and stayed

Then one day, I decided to let the blood drip

The blood ran and ran from wrist to middle of my arm

I looked out the window and saw he was no longer there

I smiled with the content of him being gone

but my smile soon

F

A

D

E

D 

and then my eyes slowly shut

Pitch darkness..

Nothing for long miles until...

The light came back.

I snapped my eyes open and saw I was no longer in my dark bedroom, but a bright hospital room

I looked over at my mom and she had tears in her face and a huge smile.

I sighed and looked out the window.

"Hey, look this way," I heard her say

I looked at her and it wasn't my mom, but the same depression monster

I closed my eyes and took a big breath

Then, I realized I was in my room and it was a normal day

It seemed nothing has happened at all

Day after day

Night after night

Everything seemed normal again.

Each and every night the monster returned, I remained strong and didn't give in to his acqusations.

I was stronger then the darkest demons and I smiled when one day the monster didn't appear in my window.

I smiled more and didn't look back.

I had defeated the biggest baddest monster and I was truly happy

I still moved on even after the monster consumed my mom and took her and my sister away, that was when I promised to not leave this earth due to the depression monster

I fought and I won and started another life.
