Depression an anomaly,
Its tale so gruesome and true
Since inception millions have witnessed its wrath
Some recovered, some passed
What can cause it?
Who knows? I say anything
Be it small or vast
Its a disease, it spreads, it claims
Your mind its territory
Nothing less than the purgatory
It takes away your will
You don't know how to feel
You know people care
You know people love
But it seems everything will just vanish
Nothing you can cherish
Its the epitome of negativity
Diminishing your positivity
Like every individual is different
How it affects them varies
Never same for two,
Well who knows about coincidence
But it shatters your confidence
You feel like there is no way out
Like you are waiting for all to end
To a path to light
But it never comes
Its like ivy, you cut it
It grows, what can trigger it
Who knows?
It could be a major tragedy
Or could be a minor scratch
No one know what it takes
To unleash its bloody wrath
People will tell you various way
Almost everyone has a say
Do this, try this, be positive, develop hobbies
Work, don't loose hope
How many times do you think
We the sufferers have heard it?
Countless i may say
It never goes our way
I have been and i am a victim myself
I have suffered and recovered and suffered
Like a spell in loop cast
Who wants to suffer?
No one wants the pain
Happiness is what we seek
But its way harder to gain
I have believed in the little things
But what do you do? When the little things
The same little things that keep you going, disappear
Do you cry in a corner or do you hold it till you shatter?
I have tried talking about my problems,
And i know they may not be too big for you
But in the back of my head i know that
It takes all my energy to just get through
I know i have a roof on my head, a job
And a family to go back to
But the triggers are different for me
A life lost, a voice that disappeared
Its my storm, it just pulls me in
And as the darkness prevails i fight
I don't give up, i fight with all my might
But its hard, too hard to bear
These are some things with you i only share
With the raging whirlwind inside my brain
I made you my safe passage, like a backdoor
Left by the coder, a doorway to minimal damage
And i know your problems, your commitments
What you have experienced and how you have made yourself and what is at stake
Go ahead do it, make your dreams come true
I will always stand with you and i have proved it too
All i ask, is just the little things
A how are you? You know i missed you? I am here.
Someone great once said, consistency is the key
And these words are all i need,
I don't know why but i feel safe with you
You are my home, and I just want you to understand
That i know you have thousands of things to take care off
And i know what they mean to you
But in the chaos just remember that there is a soul that needs you too.
Depression, i can talk so much about it
And so much how its affected me
Its been a battle since kota scenes
All i ask is for a little patience
If you see one in need
Just treat them kindly and pay heed
For it has claimed many,
lets not let it plant one more destructive seed
The fight with the demons is still on
And i am not planning to loose anytime soon
But just in case I let go
Just know it was no ones fault
But i lost a battle with my darker self
And maybe for you they might have been small
But for me, just to subside it, it took my all
At the end of it, i lost my will, that's all.
