Depression

Depression is like a wave
Some days the waves crash so hard
It feels like I’m drowning
Or worse
As though I’m already dead

Can’t keep afloat
Ain’t got a boat
No life jacket can save me now

The saltwater fills my lungs
I’m choking, gasping for air
Yet I don’t even care
I don’t care if I sink and drown

I don’t care about anything
Life’s too unbearable
I don’t want to go on
I don’t want to hold on
