A Question For Depression
Why?
I ask myself why every day,
Because of you,
Yes, you.
Why can I not foster a smile today?
Why do you take the tingles of happiness away?
Why can I not leave the protection of my bed?
Why are these never forgiving thoughts pounding in my head?
Why do I have a never-ending urge to scream?
Why do I wish that the entirety of my life has been one sad and twisted dream?
Why can I not fight the constant feeling of being down?
Why can I not get my life turned around?
Why can I not grasp the comfort of being free?
Why the hell do you keep strangling me?
Yes, you,
Because of you,
I ask myself why every day.
Why?
