Depression- Poem

I feel the pain,

It feels as if I have nothing inside,

No emotion,

No happiness,

Not a care,

Is anyone listening?

Needing help,

Where are you,

Are you hearing me,

My cries,

Do they make you angry,

Does it hurt,

As if a thousand daggers,

Thrown to your heart,

Watching it bleed

I'm taking a pill,

Will this help me,

Will it hurt me,

Will anyone listen to me,

What do I have to do,

To convince to you,

I'm sad,

hurt,

scared,

depressed

Will it take another death,

another cry in the night,

another bullied,

sad little child,

to feel how I feel,

rejected, 

useless,

alone,

What would it take to convince,

I need help,

I need to be heard,

I don't want to be kept,

locked up and alone,

like no one cares,

like I'm just overreacting,

Will it take another death,

to convince,

I'm sick,

if not,

what will it take?

I'm crying inside,

faking a smile on the outside,

knowing that someone there,

feels the same pain I feel,

wanting to cry,

when no one sees me,

All I need,

is to hear a voice,

a voice that cares,

a voice that says,

you are not alone,

you can hold on,

you are stronger,

than a tear of sadness,

a cry for help,

when you need a hand

Depression will not take me,

will not win,

will not drag me down,

will not make me feel sorry for myself,

when I have nothing to be sorry about,

I know I can win it,

I can feel it,

And I can stop it,

Depression will always be a part of me,

but will never take over my happiness,

give me sadness,

I have the strength,

I have the courage,

I have the power,

and depression will never win
