Numb
Sadness
Laziness

So many emotions
Sometimes all at once

My depression is almost 10 years old
I'm almost 20...

Some days are better than other....
Today is one of the bad ones
Probably the worst I've had yet

Bookstores are my happy place
Being surrounded by books
It calms me

No matter my mood
I always leave a bookstore happy

I went to a bookstore today
It didn't work
Not even the slightest

I still feel numb,
As if I could cry at any given second,
Even if I spill the smallest of a drink

I've barely eaten today,
A few carrots and a cup of coffee
That's it

Nothing seems to be working
Nothing is making me feel better

Books
Music
Shopping

The three things that always cheer me up
Can't

Depression, depression
Go away
I don't want you today
Nor any more
So stay away
Forevermore...
