I fell into the depths of the ocean
sadness flowing over me
this ocean is not normal
if only you could understand
this ocean is depression
and you would not like it here
it is cold, dark, and there is only sadness
I pushed away the source of light
I'm stuck here
not forever
only until I can swim
I swim all the time, only to the surface
never stepping out
just looking through the foggy water at the light
this light is fading
I'm running out of oxygen
I put my hand out of the ocean
grasping for help
is anyone there to help me
or am I just stuck here
I am not depressed but I know people who are and this is dedicated to those who are battling depression.
