Please don't leave me.
I don't even know who I am without you.
You've been in my life for such a long time, I can't remember who I am without you.
I can't let you go, and I know that I should.
I hate you, yet I'm terrified of who I am without you.
I'm scared.
They tell me that you don't define who I am, but is that really true?
Without you, what am I? Who am I?
I don't know why I can't accept you being gone.
I don't know why I can't let you go.
But I know that I'm scared.
All of the nights, sobbing and shivering and trying to stop breathing - I want it GONE.
But it's hard when you've been in my life for so long.
I wish you never came into my life, Depression.
Sincerely,
A survivor.
