"Depression isn't about, 'Woe is me, my life is this, that and the other', it's like having the worst flu all day that you just can't kick."
robin williams


they always say they understand me,
I just wish they could see.
The pain that hurts inside,
it feels like a churning tide.
The rocking of my mind,
mixes with the passing of time.
The screaming vortex of my voices,
they cannot see my choices.
I try to run and hide,
then I find myself on my side.
I try to scream for help,
I end up shriveled and then I yelp.
I keep being daunted,
the laughing is taunting.
I cannot forever control,
the monster inside I hold.
I push away the ones I love and care,
just so they do not have to share.
The pain that I always hold from them,
I want to protect them like a precious gem.
The seething hate inside me that dwells,
just  churns and swells.
I try to let off a controlled stream,
the emotional burning pain makes me want to scream.
I cannot express the pain,
I would rather be hit by a poisoned cane.
The pain is excruciating,
I just wish I was hallucinating.
I try to keep myself hidden,
for anyone to know the true me is forbidden.
I swear I see monstrosities,
I am losing my sanity.
I think I cannot hold out,
I think I would rather drink a stout.
My mind has left my body,
I feel as if I am just a copy.
I keep pondering inside this empty shell,
all I hear is the dull chime of the death bell.

ding,ding,ding,dong repeated over and over,

softer and softer until all i see was black
