Depression

You'll never know what you'll find
inside the depths of a depressed mind
crying when you're glad
smiling when you're sad
in the mirror i stare
realizing i dont care
the one i see
staring back isnt me
standing over the shattered tear soaked glass
that i used to forget my past
but with every bottle i drank
the farther i sank
the re-runs haunting me
of the memories taunting me
i pop some pills
as my body spills
lying on the floor
my kids knock at the door
but its too late
i've already chosen my fate!
