A Journey Through Depression
A Poem About Depression
Depression, a weight that I cannot bear,
A burden that I cannot seem to share.
A shadow that follows me through the day,
A darkness that won’t go away.
It feels like I’m drowning, in a sea of despair, Gasping for air, but it’s just not there.
I’m lost in a maze, with no end in sight,
Trapped in a darkness, so deep and so tight.
It’s a feeling of hopelessness, that grips me tight,
A struggle that I fight with all my might.
But sometimes, it feels like a losing game,
And all I can do is cry out in pain.
Yet, I know that I’m not alone,
That there are people who care, who’ve grown To understand and help me through,
To guide me toward a life that’s new.
So I hold on to hope, and I hold on to light, Knowing that with time, I’ll find my sight.
That one day, the darkness will fade away,
And I’ll find my way to a brighter day.
