I try to think
of all the good
things in life
and forget about
all the bad
but lately
life is too depressing
and I am far to sad
Days past me by
in a hurry
I don't even
have time to think
everything is shallow,
gloomy, and I am left
in a dark horizon
no sun no shine
no calming lullaby
no hope
no wish
except for this
my dad is everything
and he is the reason
I push on
when everything goes wrong
I am poor
and depressed
but I'm glad
I have my father
to help me through this

My life is very complicated and I don't have a lot but at least I have one thing, one person who has always been there for me. My father and I love him dearly.
