The Save

The heart and soul can do so much,

                 and leave us so far back.

Make us feel so weak,

Though there's nothing that we lack.

 

Hey, its true you know.

 

You never get ahead because you're

                        always stuck behind.

              Life is hard to handle if you

                    struggle with your mind

 

Maybe if you'd come to me before you fell,

Maybe I'd have saved you from you hell.

 

 

 

*NOTE: This poem is about anyone who struggles with clinical depression. 

A large number of people don't take this illness seriously, but I experienced 

the pain of depression first hand with my girlfriend.
