Unfortunately all poems that i wrote before this one are lost...
i'll probably end up writing more poems if i get around to it...
Inside
sitting here alone
alone with my depression
it lives inside of me
it has it's own descretion
i'd make it go away
if i had the choice
but it will not leave
it doesn't hear my voice
looking in the mirror
i cannot see the fear
i'm always worse inside
i am not as i appear
i dream about the future
and what i have in store
i don't like the way it looks
i don't want this anymore
i wish someone would come
and take this all away
i don't want to live like this
i don't know if i can stay
