Familiar

It's been awhile since I've last cried
Since I've last wanted to end my life
I was finally doing fine
Nothing depressing seemed to cross my mind

But then an old friend came and said hello
A shadow that used to call this place home
It didn't have a face, but it was familiar
When I put the pieces together, it was all linear

Depression as an illness or as an emotion
I don't know which one the shadow has chosen
But it came here and chose to stay
I don't know how long it'll take for it to go away

My brain is so welcoming
That's what it keeps saying
It's hard to ignore
I'm crying on the floor

I see it through my eyes
It's back to haunt my mind
Making me get lost in time
And soon I might wish to die
