Depression

A long and severe reccesion in an economy or market

Depression

Feelings of severe despondency and dejection

The depression I know was the latter

He tightens his grip around my neck while his laughter echos throughout my ears

Depression

He’s the roommate I never asked for

The man with an opinion no one bothered for

Depression

He follows me around day and night no matter how many times I ask him to stop

He causes me to drop whatever I’m doing to focus on him

Depression

Is the one who I never wanted in the first place but now I don’t want him to leave

He is the one who never left no matter the circumstance

Depression

His manipulation is terrifying cause once you hear it it’s all you’ll ever believe

So now I believe there’s no such thing as an alleviation for me and my man depression
