My depression is not a thing
It’s a person
It’s one of those super villains
In the movies that are impossible to beat 
Some days I just want to scream and cry
Other days I just want to go to bed and never wake up
One day it’s as small as a bee in a bears hand
The next it’s the bear
Everyday I feel like i’m worthless
Like I have nothing to live for
And that I’m just a burden
And I can’t explain these feelings I have
So please don’t ask
‘Why do you feel this way’
It’s just how I feel
It’s like how you can’t explain
Why you love someone
You just do
But maybe one day I’ll be better
I’ll be one of the happiest people in the world
But for now all I can do is act happy
And hide behind a mask I have created for myself
And just cry in the inside
Cause nobody wants to see a crying girl
Nobody wants to see a depressed girl
Who wants to die
So I stay behind my mask and silently cry
And wait for the pain to go away
