Welcome to the Canada poem arc! These poems will take up the next couple chapters. They are about depression, so just warning you before you read. Enjoy!
Takes over
Not just the mind
But the soul
Happiness
No longer exists
Hope
Dreams
What were they again?
You are just a shadow of your former self
Words spoken
Stay that way
For you don't say a word anymore
Your only friend is yourself
In an empty room
Loneliness slowly creeps in
Taking over your life
Becoming a too familiar feeling
Tears fall down your face
Every day and every night
Your blanket at night is a blanket of shame and regret
You are held hostage
Too afraid to go anywhere
For the fear of more pain
Can't go outside
For the light is too bright
Screams are like music to your ears
Heart?
What heart?
That was shattered forever ago
What are feelings?
All you know is sadness
Love you have never felt only adds onto the pain
Loved by none
Talked to by no one
Depression becomes a life companion
It is a predator that preys on innocent people
Kills it slowly
Making sure it suffers
The pain can be all too much for unsuspecting people
No mercy
No mercy
It has no mercy
Thoughts of suicide occur
From people trying to escape it
People that no longer consider it a companion
But a foe
The rope is hung
The blades are out
Life is over
No one knows
No one cares
What that person felt
Until they are found hung
Drowned in a pool of blood
Some people are happy
For the weird kid is gone
Forever
And ever
And ever
A permanent solution
Others realize their misdeeds
Vow never to do it again
But it is too late
The light has faded
It is gone
No longer shining
Cannot be relit
Goodbye forever
You shall be missed
An angel you are
Finally free, finally loved
Free to be yourself
You soar through the skies
Trying to be someone else's guardian angel
Saving them from what you had to go through
Your family misses you
They cry on the ground
Wishing they had known
Wishing they had done something to help
But they cannot
For the deed is done
Goodbye forever
You shall be missed
