Depression's Imprisonment

Living With Mental Disorders

By Amelia DavisPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

For all the agony

My mind has encountered,

Keeping me a captive slave

Of depression.

.

For all the misfortunes

I've endured, with serenity

Taunting and tangling me

In a web of faults.

.

Reality or nightmare

Circulating the mind,

With sanity at battle,

No matter how far I fall..

I will not give in

I will stand back up

.

I will not

Allow the powers of

This disease to defeat.
