Depression is a war (Poem)

Depression is a war.

A battle against yourself.

Every thought is a Bullet.

Every movement is a punch.

Every word is a stab in the chest.

...

Depression is a thief.

It steals everything you once had.

Everything left behind is a thing you keep trapped.

...

Depression is murder.

It killed the boy I used to be.

I look in the mirror.

And see this thing.

...

Depression is a zombie.

You're alive but dead.

unaware of what is happening.

You become the walking dead.

...

Depression is a nightmare.

You wake up in Hell.

Afraid of living.

Everything seems impossible to bear.

...

Depression is an ocean.

A sea of emotions.

You're drowning everyday.

However, you're not saved.

...

Depression is a bottomless pit.

Never ending pain.

Never ending struggles.

There is no light.

There is no escape.

...

Depression is a war.

A constant battle with yourself.

I think I might surrender for I had enough.

...

Depression is a war.

You either win.

Or you die trying.

And I am afraid to say I am losing.
