Depression
I've fallen back
Into it again
And I try to fight
But depression wins.
It takes over and
Destroys my progress
As time goes by
My depression manifests.
I sit alone and
All I do is cry
This depression
Makes me want to die.
I put on a smile
So no one can see
That deep down inside
This depression is killing me.
Maybe this is my fate
To feel utter despair
To walk with depression
And to have no one care.
Into it again
And I try to fight
But depression wins.
It takes over and
Destroys my progress
As time goes by
My depression manifests.
I sit alone and
All I do is cry
This depression
Makes me want to die.
I put on a smile
So no one can see
That deep down inside
This depression is killing me.
Maybe this is my fate
To feel utter despair
To walk with depression
And to have no one care.

I feel as if I am alone. This world and its people tearing me down. I am but a shell of a person with nothing but melancholy inside.

You have done a really good job of summarizing depression into a poem which is well written, concise, yet complete and which clearly conveys the agony of those experiencing depression.
