Depression

Depression is a deep trench
That goes on forever with no end
Pitch black and empty
Darkness for eternity

Depression is a tornado
Rushing and confusing everything
Demolishing all your thoughts
Leaving you helpless without a care

Depression is an addiction
Staying with you wherever you go
Influencing you for the wrong
Burning in your soul night and day
Forever tormenting your mind

Depression is a blazing fire
Consuming up your every thought
Happiness and peace melt away
Your meaning of like taken away in the flames
And the scent of smoke scorched into your memory

Depression is a deep sleep
Never waking
Condemned away from the world outside
Trapped in a jail of your own mind
Tears fall and fall
You can’t get out
For depression will be there
Holding you prisoner
