Major Depressive Disorder

I try I try but I can not feel

Pain, My only friend

The only thing that is real

I watch friends having fun

and I join in the glee

With a flip of a switch

I cant breath I must leave

I put on my mask

Pretend to care

Walking a earth I do not wish to share

How I long for the manic days

When all in the world is right

intriguing and beautiful

It is quite a delight

Then it flees from me as quick as it came

So I drown my sorrows until I forget my own name

The words I have writ can not express how It feels

To live day after day with a wound that will not heal
