I like to take cold showers
I like to see
How much
I have to turn the dial
Until my body is as
Numb
As my mind
People say
Depression
Is a fog
A dark hole
A piercing dagger to the heart
For me
It is an anchor
It keeps me grounded
Cause without my sadness
I would be lost
I would not be me
I would be alone
But
It drags me downwards
And
I cannot see beyond the darkness
I cannot breathe through my panic
I cannot move under the pressure
And I
Am
Alone

Here lies the girl I could have been
The one who could smile
Have fun
And blend in
She could dance
Regret the same things
She was by no means the dumbest
They said she was smart
But she knew for sure
She chose to remain back
Here lies the girl I am
The one who stressed
Stayed at home
And stuck out with a frown
She couldn’t dance
She stuck to people like her
And she had few regrets
Besides not having anything to regret
And she kept herself busy reading her books
And they said she would go far
But she knew she was still not there yet
The girl here now sees the girl that could have been
She doesn’t know which she prefers
But she does know
That every year
She cries that it could have been her that got left behind.
