Jasperess...it's a well known fact that gloom begets gloom...fear begets fear and so on and so on.
Try anticipating someting good happening...a sunny day, a call from a friend...hanging out with your buddies, and good health is no small thing! Sitting home and brooding about your life doesn't help on bit...it just perpetuates the problem!
Go outside of yourself...try volunteering somewhere...you are almost sure to see someone who has bigger problems than you do. The one person who can help you the most is...YOU!
Recognize that depression is an illness that must be treated...and can be...but it requires your willingness to cooperate fully in the process.
In the end...YOU are your best physician...for he is powerless without your help. You are a talented, precious child, who has much to give the world...at sixteen years old...you can only see today...there is much to look forward to tomorrow! I for one would like to know you then.

We certainly all do feel this way these days.. you are in good company .. many will feel this emotion. Great flow of words and emotion.. keep writing and never stop.. it is a gift!
Gosh, this sounds so scared and sad. Very fearful tone in this poem. Carried out well. I hope you don't/didn't have to withstand the negative anticipation and are/were able to experience something good.
Nice work.
I am single and an age. I hate people, but I love them. I get scared very easily and, well, i wont say why. I'm a poet, though i'm bad at it. My best friends are: Wa Ya As The Gothic Cowboy, ATG, .. more..
