Depression

A poem about mental health

I’m tired

Tired of crying

Tired of feeling this way

Depression

Doesn’t define who I am

Nor my self worth

Replaying the moment

I lost my first love

Feeling trapped in the pits of hell

I want to move on

But he keeps holding me back

I wanted to wait for him

And maybe I will

But you are the source of my depression

And I have to let you disappear

Longing to be happy

I want to walk into the sunset

And smell the roses

This time it’s all about me

My world revolves around me

And not you

sad poetry

About the Creator
