Depression Is Real
At school she is so happy
With all of her friends
Or so it looks even though she’s sappy
She is unhappy all the time
Inside she feels like dying
Everyone thinks she is fine
She thought off a cliff she’d go diving
Then maybe the world would be fine
Her parents don’t worry
She stays in her room
She is a teenager it’s normal to be gloomy
Sometimes Their other kids did that too
Everyday she said she would do it
Someone always got in the way
She wanted to throw a fit
She wanted to let them know
She hated herself
Not one thing she liked
It was the same for everyone else
She was almost ready
She was crying all day
Stayed home from school
Her sister came home and didn’t know what to say
She asked if she was okay
She said yes it was just her stomach
She went to her bed
Said she had a headache
She would never get the chance
