Depression

Another poem centres in my depression. 17years old

When all the birds are singing,
and the shining sun is high,
All I can see is darkness
shrouding my shallow sky.

When everything seems right in life,
and laughters in the air,
all I do is cry each night
and true smiles from me are rare.

There are two things I need in life,
Friend and family love,
when one of these does disappear
living does get tough

So smiling my be forged by me,
and laughter may be fake,
but I'll carry on this shambled life
for everyone Else's sake.

Depression is very hard to deal with and many times it is easier than being honest about what you truly feel inside.

Nice poem. Especially the ending. Though there were one or two grammatical and punctuation errors here and there, overall it's a really good poem.

This really touched me. I suffer from depression and this beautiful poem expresses so well how it feels sometimes. Thank you for sharing.
