Depression

381 Words
Heavy clouds hang low, Blocking out the sun's warm glow, A weight upon my shoulders, I feel like I'm growing colder. Depression is a thief, Stealing joy and bringing grief, It robs me of my laughter, Leaving me alone thereafter. My mind becomes a prison, A place where sadness has risen, I try to escape, to be free, But the darkness follows me. Days become a struggle, I feel like I'm in a bubble, Watching life pass me by, While I feel like I just want to die. But still, I hold on tight, Trying to make it through the night, Hoping for a brighter day, When the darkness fades away. Depression is a battle, But with love and support, we can rattle, The chains that hold us down, And rise again from the ground. In the shadows of my mind, depression dwells, A heavy cloud upon my soul it compels. It whispers doubts and paints the world in gray, A relentless battle fought day by day. It creeps into my thoughts, distorting perception, Sowing seeds of sorrow, a constant deception. A weight upon my chest, hard to breathe, As sadness engulfs, refusing to leave. Dark tendrils wrap around my weary heart, Dragging me down, tearing me apart. Isolation becomes my closest friend, A spiral descending, with no apparent end. But I refuse to surrender, to let it win, For within me, a glimmer of light begins. I reach out for support, for a helping hand, Knowing that together, we can withstand. Through therapy, love, and tender care, I find the strength to lift the despair. Each step forward, a victory gained, Breaking the chains, no longer restrained. In the depths of darkness, I find my might, A survivor, ready to emerge into the light. Depression may linger, but I will rise, With resilience and hope, I claim my prize. For within me lies a spirit that's strong, A survivor's anthem, an unwavering song. I'll battle the shadows, with courage and grace, Embracing life's challenges, finding my place. So I'll keep on fighting, Through the pain and the crying, Holding onto hope and light, Until the darkness fades from sight. It's hard to find the light, When everything is gray, To fight against the night, And hope for a new day.
