The Foggy Haze of Depression

by Tina   May 31, 2004


Go to school with dark circles under my eyes, i just smile and tell stupid lies.
Every night i can never sleep, no matter how tired i am or how i feel so beat.
My mind starts racing my imagination goes wild, this is part of my depression but this is just mild.
I feel so worthless like nobody cares, i have so much pain that i can't bare.
My emotions are hidden under my skin, taking the knife is no way to win.
My emotions run through my body like blood, overflowing like a brilliant flood.
I cut to release them for they are screaming at me, I just wish I could see clearly.
I'm so lost and lonely that I can't see straight, I'm trying not to be afraid and to have some fate.
Fate seems to be lost in the shadows hiding from me, worthless is all i will ever be.
Theres cuts on my body that i try to hide, behind each loving smile another part of me dies.
I'm like a flower wilted on the ground, slowly evaporating so nothing can be found.
My heart shattered in a million pieces left here and there, leaving my body empty and bare.
I've given my love to everyone i see, the only thing i have left to do is to love me.
