Bad Again

Depression always comes back.

By E. J. WyliePublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I cried soft tears of wrangled pain,

I didn’t think I’d be here again.

Or maybe that was just wishful thinking,

Trying to stop my thoughts from sinking.

Down into the depth of my mind,

Searching for answers I’ll never find.

Why everything I do seems so wrong,

And everyone else seems so strong.

Into a ball, I curl up and cry,

Still fascinated by the night's sky,

Trying to find some peace out there,

Hoping that someone cares, somewhere.

I could never say all this to you,

Could never say all you put me through.

So behind a smile, I will hide,

Knowing all the while, I’m dead inside.
