Poem: help me
get through this day.
depression is falling into place,
as I'm slipping further away.
feeling a little worthless,
what else can I say?
as the tears fill
the inside of my heart,
I feel it coming,
as we drift farther apart.
so I take a drink,
easing the pain.
hating my life,
because I'm insane.
but don't worry about me,
I'll be fine.
wandering aimlessly,
looking for a sign.
it isn't easy,
to act like its okay,
knowing I'll lose you,
in the coming days.
now don't be scared,
there's no threat.
I'll take that drink,
just to forget.
you may not understand,
but I do have a reason.
living this life is hard,
when moods change like the seasons....
