A PART OF ME DIES WITHIN

She was the judge and jury in this case,

Three times she rejected my appeals,

Life lost its meaning and I got distracted,

What would it take, How much longer,

She held my fate in her hands,

I felt like giving up yet I was so near

Fours years of study and almost giving up,

I lost touch with reality and lived on autopilot,

I wondered what life held for me

I had no dependents

I did not owe anybody

Maybe I was better of dead

I shuddered at the thought

I have been here before

It confirms depression is back

A part of me dies within
