Alone

Slipping through the cracks
I feel as if my life
holds no meaning

Aggravation seems to control me
I begin to withdrawal
from everything, from everyone

I don't need a friend
I don't want to be a friend
I just want to be left alone

To hide in my world of depression
To hide in my mind alone
My life holds no meaning
I just want to be left alone

"Having suffered depression myself, I can relate to this poem, and was honoured when Amanda allowed me to feature it here on my Guest Pages. The words are simple and to the point, but reflect the depth of emotion that depression sufferers experience. It is a sad feeling, and empty feeling. It is like nothing else. I pray you never have to endure it.
Thank you, Amanda, for allowing me to feature your wonderful poem here.
