Depression is a craving wave
It comes and goes
Wanted to leave but not wanted to escape
Fighting to make it out but
Barely making it out alive
It's surviving
But our surviving isn't even surviving anymore
It's the days repeating themselves
over and over again
Blending into one day
Not wanted to live but causing
People to become stranger again
And friends aren't friends anymore
They are stranger again
With all of our secret
Wishing for a different outcome
And hoping this will past
Faith isn't faith anymore
We turn away from everything we know
To what can number this pain
Or to what can take it away temporarily
It makes us feel something temporarily
To something permanently
Going from feeling everything to feeling nothing
Or going from being lifelike to be dead inside
Drowning ourselves in our pity
Not knowing how to escape
Trying so hard that they forget
How to life
Staring into this world as
It's meaningless but
Through all of it
There come beauty
There come strength
There come self-love
And self worth
There comes a time when life seems something worth living
Overcoming it with a filling of happiness
But not everyone makes it out alive
But will you?
