He whispered to her one day, Depression did.

She was just reading in her room when

He crept up and whispered in her ear,

"No one loves you."

She tried to shake it off.



He hit her one day, Depression did.

She was just sitting in her room when

He took his fist and hit her in the heart.

"No one cares about you," He whispered.

So hurt by this, she went to bed early.


He fooled her one day, Depression did.

She was lying under her blankets when

He lied down next to her.

"No one loves or cares about you, but I do," he whispered.

She sunk farther inside her blankets.


He visited her every day now, Depression did.

Telling her his secrets and hitting her in the heart.

She felt suffocated, like she was drowning in sadness,

But she let him in again and again.
