Saddness

How it feels to be depressed.

Sadness, like an ocean surrounds me,

I am completely alone,

And darkness as far as eye can see,

Turns my weak heart to icy stone.

How pitiful am I?

As I silently drown in my own tears,

All I seem able to do is cry,

Yet for some strange unknown reason I still stay here.

I've tried to break free,

But secretly, I know there's no way out,

This must be were I'm destined to be,

Stuck with no hope of ever getting out.

As a person who suffers from depression, I feel like people should be able to know what its like.
