Depression

I wanted to drive off a bridge today
but I didn’t.
A song made me happy.
I wanted to pop some pills today
but I didn’t.
A stranger made me smile.
I wanted to slit my wrists today
but I didn’t.
A friend made me laugh.

Dark and blue,
Pain and sadness.
It is the chill that creeps
into a white soul
and blackens it;
None seem to notice it
until it is too late.

I wanted to kill myself today
and I did.
A boy broke my heart.
