Depression

The best word for lonliness-

The seed that feeds

The soul-

It fills the soul with

Anger and sadness.

My depression gets started when

I get a headache; or when

I don't feel good.

My depression streaks

Don't feel good-

They feel as if

Someone has

Whacked me one

In the head

When I do not

Ask for it.



So I start to ask myself

"Why was I even born?"

I then start to

Vent my anger over

Little and big

Things; such as

Why I'm a forum member;

My life; etc.

I start to feel

Out of place,

I then start to

Wish I was never born.



I think of all

My forum friends-

The ones I know I can trust

And talk to

And seek comfort

From my depression.

I start thinkin' that maybe

My forum friends

Don't want to know;

I start to feel helpless,

My nerves shaking

Non-stop.



My depression continues to grow-

I feel like I have no worth

In life at all.

I get the insecurity to end it all-

By commiting suicide.

But the thought

Of all my forum friends

Telling me,"Victoire, don't!"

It dawns on me;

I look at the ink pen

In my hand;



I decide to take

My forum friend's advice

And not try to

Commit suicide by

Trying to poison myself.

I throw the inkpen

In the trash,

Feeling the best feeling ever-

The knowing that

My internet friends

Are there for me

Through thick and thin.



I am now

Living up to my potential

Of reaching my goal

And rising above

All the rest!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this once in memory of a hardship I had when I was 13. I was feeling bad about myself and tried to poison myself with an ink pen. But it didn't work.
