Depression
I don't like the way I feel today,
Please depression just go away.
My heart is pounding my chest is tight,
I'm just not feeling quite right.
My head is spacey I can not think,
I'm so tired but I can't sleep a wink.
It's hard to breath I'm getting no air.
Why am I like this, this isn't fair.
My eyes hurt from all the tears that I shed,
I just want to lay down back in my bed!!
I want to get up but I don't have the will...
I liked it before I was mentally ill!!!
- Tracey Marie Day
