I'm Scared

Depression-
it's taking over my soul.
Seeing my shadow on the wall
Has never pleased me this much.

It’s a new found friend,
In which I hide.
But here I go-
One more step until I fall.

Falling to my death-
Falling into myself.

I just need to take a breath-
To open my arms-
To envelop death.

Standing on the edge of a cliff
Has never scared me this much.
But this is what happens when you
Give yourself up.

Looking down,
I notice no-one is there to catch me.

I see all the jagged rocks
That friends have placed in my path.
I see the never-ending fall
From the beginning.
I have been falling this whole time.
Am I dreaming?

It always comes back to this.
So why even try again?
I know I'll be hurt-
here comes the dirt...

Six feet until the end.
