Depression

Depression

A Poem by jordanfrancisco

no antidote
hopelessly looking for a painkiller
the drugs I take
just make things worse

born like this
believed I was a mistake
but really
being alive was the biggest
of them all

knife in hand
I cut away the ties that hold me here
slowly shedding tears as the barrier rips
and the soul I once had seeps out

just to be found
in a pool of blood
lifeless in my bedroom
no note to be found

Author's Note

jordanfrancisco
I was very literal with this one and I can understand if it was too much for you. Please remember all that I write about are thoughts in my head and I don't like to suppress ideas based on their severity.
