Depression is a war

Depression is a war.
A battle against yourself
Every thought is a bullet,
Every moment is a punch,
Every word is a stab in the heart.
Depression is a thief.
It steals everything you once had.,
Everything left behind is the things that keep you trapped,
Depression is a murder,
It killed the girl I used to be,
I look in the mirror,
And I see this thing,
Depression is a zombie,
Your alive but dead,
You are unaware of what's happening,
Your the walking dead,
Depression is a nightmare
You wake up into a hell,
Your afraid of living,
Everything seems impossible to bear,
Depression is an ocean,
A sea of emotions,
Your drowning everyday,
However your never saved.
Depression is a bottomless pit,
Never ending pain,
Never ending struggles,
There is no light,
There is one escape,
Depression is a war.
A constant battle within yourself,
I think I might surrender for I had enough,
Depression is a war,
You either win
Or you die trying
And I'm afraid I'm losing.
