Exception Of Depression

Comments/ratings are returned 2 fold

So baby, how was your night?
Did you think "Wow, she really left?"
Did you think I would stay again
and try to forgive and forget?

What do you think I did last night?
Did you think I actually cried?
Well for once I didn't stare in the mirror
thinking of flaws, and dying inside.

I didn't sit up and continue
the list of why I should hate myself.
In fact, this morning when I woke up
I ripped that list up and threw it out.

For once, I didn't stay up late
thinking of how you did me wrong.
I didn't harbor anymore of the hate and pain
that I've felt from you for so long.

my night was perfect and I feel so refreshed
because for once I didn't cry myself to sleep.
I didn't think "Wow, I really left"
wishing I didn't leave.

And today will pass like yesterday
and all the days before
with the exception of depression
because you're not hurting me anymore.
