Poetry Dealing With Depression/Finding Hope

Among Us
By Wendi
Among us lies a secret;
Dark and uncontained.
A deeply fatal contagion that knows no boundary
Save for the clean ones that remain.
Among us dwells a demon;
Blatant, absolute.
Seemingly invincible to all the world,
Save for those that know the Truth.
Within us is a silence;
Obscure and undefined,
By which we look the other way, to shy away
From an anorexic state of mind.
Within us is a battle;
A war waged just for me.
But soldiers are the lucky ones, those that don't survive,
Who need only die to be set free.
Around us are the people,
Blind and unashamed,
Who constantly reach out to help the needy,
To do their good deed for the day.
Around us are the smiles
That no authenticity can stand,
That offer sympathy and kindness,
But will never understand.

Throw Me Away (dont ever be me)

By Krista

I've died inside, I'm dead, I was dying

Now I'm a corpse rotting into nothing

You've seen my last struggle, my last sign of life,

Now I'm just a corpse, all empty inside

I'm the perfect example of a dead faith

Of a person too weak to hang on

A person who gave up at the first bomb

A person no one should ever be (no one should ever be me)

So go ahead, take a look

Take a look at this dead soul

Take a look, I'm a disgrace to the Christian faith, the Christian goal,

Talk a good long look at me

Torture those eyes until they see,

That this is the person you should never be,

Chorus

Throw me away, I'm a useless piece of mud

Throw me away, I'm an embarassment to God

Throw me away, I'm Satan's greatest sucess

Throw me away, I've hurt Go, I'm a mess

Throw me away, I've made Satan smile

Throw me away, I've failed my last trial

I cant live like this, cant live while knowing

That I'm the person I never wanted to be

I never wanted this for me

I want to die, but I cant

I cant, know that I'd be another bad example

Another number to the nation's failures

So just

Chorus

You dont know how weak I've been

You dont know how much I've sinned

Just throw me in the trash

Crush me into mash

Then go away, forget what you've seen

Just remember this and only this

Learn this lesson, take it from me

Please dont ever, dont ever be me.


Nothing left to do. By Amber Painful memories, haunting me so, in and out of consciousness, sleep now letting go. on the edge of sanity, trying to pull through, depression taking over, nothing left to do. Falling in love with madness, dreams are all insane, to scary for even me, fighting all this pain. Sleep is taking over now, nothing left to fight, Just take a breath and hold on, hope I make it through the night. Would you like to get ahold of Amber? Her e-mail address is Born2tz1001@hotmail.com Someone By Krista I have so much emotion bottled up inside me No one can feel, no one can see No one can comphrehend How I feel, who I am How much I'm hurting, crying out for someone chorus (I need) Someone to talk to Someone to tell me what to do Someone to tell me who I am, who I'll be Someone to hug me, embrace me, love me Someone to hug me tight Someone to make it alright Why am I hurting? Did something go wrong? Why do I want to cry? Why do I want to die? I didnt lose a loved one, My parents didnt divorce I didnt get beaten or abused Man, I'm so confused I have family, friends, cats, dogs, Even God, Lord of all, Nothing happened that would make me this way I have everything, I should be okay Please, give me someone chorus Make it alright, make it okay, (help me, help me) ease this pain away Where is the hope I used to see? Where is that person I used to be? I've been offered a gift, a gift of death A gift that will take away my last breath (help me, help me) take this gift away Dont let me take it I want to make it (please, please) hug me, embrace me, hold me tight, (please, please) make it be alright Dont let me slip into the night ...
