Depression

whitepearl

I want to be happy,
And get rid of this frown,
I try and just smile,
But it's getting me down.

Coz all of these demons,
Are sat on my shoulder,
And It seems to get worse,
The more I get older.

I guess I'm alright,
Most of the time,
I want strawberries & peaches,
Not lemon & lime.

If you have depression,
It's an illness for real,
I've had it before,
So I know how you feel ❤

    I’m sure most of us can relate. Some of us more than others!

    I'm sure most of us have felt this way at some point in our lives. I've struggled with depression my whole life. Writing is great therapy though. Welcome to MPS! Keep writing.
