Dripping down my face are ice-cold tears

Filling my bubble up with my own fears

Trying to drown me in a lake of misery

Leaving everyone else to solve this mystery

of why I am so sad and blue

not knowing of everything I say and do

These things are only coping mechanisms

I drag my pen across the scroll of deception


Every single one of you has seen what I can do

drawing, writing, whatever it is! I will start anew

Scribbling 'cross my blank canvas, I draw

Hopefully..this isn't my last straw


Dripping down your face are ice-cold tears

Filling thy bubble up with thine own fears

They try to drown thee in dark misery

Leaving everyone else to see the end of my mystery


Splish splash, drip drop

How in the world can anybody stop

The monster that I hath created?

My next action had already been fated


The scroll foretold my death, of mine sweet sorrow

Knowing I won't be there for your good morrow

You stand there, moving your mouths ever so slightly,

Hopelessly hoping I will be back by night,

But you know I won't be

right?


Is this just a dream? One where you can't wake up from?

Or is this real life, and I really am up above?

You want to wake up now, I can tell

Not wanting to believe I truly went to hell

For committing a crime, the one dubbed suicide

The action of one taking their own life

I can only hope that you will survive 

and live on to see the light

of day, as you all shine bright

I wish and pray and hope with all my might

That you will help another through their fight


Depression, the one of many names

It is the being who shattered my soul, and remains

in the darkest pit of many people's lives

Including my life, the one that had died.


I can see your eyes bubbling up with tears

These tears are of hope, and not of your fears,

You have faith that I was sent up above

that I had, at last, found love


Tears are dripping down the faces we share,

Bubbling beneath, we try and show that we care

Crying over me, as we recite our nightly prayer,

which asks for a life of rare fair with pairs

of couples walking up and down the street,

fully aware of the depression they have beat.
