Its more than an emotion

Take me to a better place,
this life is getting to hard,
this fierce strong feeling has overcome me,
i am living life in the dark.

everything around me,
seems so big and strong,
people are against me,
to this world i don't belong.

mum says I'm suicidal,
and i need some help quick,
but i don't think its really that bad,
when i make myself go sick.

covering shivering darkness,
swallows me up at night,
its laughing at my feeble fear,
leaving me no energy to fight.

days are flying past me,
its as if I'm standing still,
the worlds circling faster and faster,
making me feel really ill.

i stare up at the white ceiling,
as i lay silent in the bath,
i feel that if i should die now,
then it will have the last laugh.

'IT' is a term i use,
for a word i solemnly do fear,
this evil word is depression,
it makes death feel near.

depression is more than a emotion,
it is an evil twisted person,
it bullies people and makes them ill by giving them depression.
