I Will Be Fine, Like Always

December 31, 2014
By Anonymous

Standing, waiting for something, anything.

I light up.

Maybe the tobacco will help me clear my mind so I can think.

So much to think about.

Depression I guess swallows your mind, your thoughts.

Anxiety I guess makes you lose control.

And I am done not having control.

Never being happy.

Living life stuck in that whole, or being swallowed by a dark cloud.

No one gets it either.

I tried telling Mom I need to go to rehab.

I need to get better Mom.

No sweety there is nothing wrong with you.

Wrong Mom.

So wrong.

My anxiety has gotten so bad I started being depressed.

You should know.

You saw me in the hostpital.

You read my papers.

I have depression now.

I need to get better before it's too late.

But no.

She will be fine.

That's what they always say.

Always.

So I guess I'll be fine then.

I try to. Its harder than it looks. Especially since I'm losing the battle of depression, and some of my friends aren't that great of people. I thank you for your sympathy. Since you don't even know me.

Thank you. Coming from a VIP that means the world to me. Writing is one of the good escapes.

This is such a great poem, but at the same time it is very sad. I feel very sorry for the girl in the poem. But if she stays strong, she will become better without the rehab. Just think good thoughts and stay strong.
