You'd Have To Be Depressed To Understand

It's like drowning.
Always drowning.
The water fills your lungs,
And threatens to pull you under.
You'd have to be depressed to understand.

You crave the touch of a knife
The soft caress of steel on skin
The way a simple cut can release you
You'd have to be depressed to understand.

Death is all you look forward too
Maybe something can stop this nightmare
No matter how beautiful.
All you want is
Cold
Dark
Silence
You'd have to be depressed to understand

Life hurts
Physically
Mentally
Spiritually
You drift away from:
Family
Friends
God
You'd have to be depressed to understand.

Have you ever considered suicide?
Actually taking your own life?
Removing your conscious from this world?
You'd have to be depressed to understand.

If you haven't cut
Don't Judge me
If you haven't purged
Dot judge me
If you haven't cried yourself to sleep at night with a knife under your pillow
Don't Judge.
Because you have to be depressed to understand.

Maybe..

Broken promises of a better day to come. We strive to go on lonelier than ever before. Thinking of those memories that cut like knives, we soon turn to things that can take our lives, but does it do.

Cutting

You can turn off the lights, You can climb into your bed, But you cant turn off your mind, The thoughts running through your head.

Feelings

A knife to flesh To cut the skin Realising blood And tension within. A fist to stone To break the bones Covering up All the pain within.

I sound weak. I sound tired. I sound sick. Just don't talk to me. I'm done with you. I'm done with her. I hate myself. And I really do. Help me please. I am unloved. I feel my heart beating.

End

Who would have thought. Today would be the last. No more will there be. Only whatever awaits. In a lonely afterlife. No more sky. No more earth. No more sea. No more anything. The clouds are grey.

The Pain

Feeling this pain I collapse into bed Not in my body In my heart and my head All I see is darkness Quickly closing in I can't escape it's evil grasp I fight but never win The feeling overwhelms...

All she ever wanted

By my beautiful girlfriend <3 Love you Taylor A smile covers up her frown. She lets no one see her cry. Her shattered heart *drip drip drip. * She's fading slowly. She hides it.

The Cliff

It would take five seconds. Not even. To never see anything again. But something holds me back, makes me look up as the evening sun sinks lower into the sky. Nobody cares, I remind myself.

@Alys124 @toriaelizabeth @insomnium @dangerousfascination thanks you guys :) it's good to know that people do understand :)

I understand.. ๐Ÿ˜” hey ? can you send me this ..? do you have a kik?

Yep: it's KellenM.

I understand this..and it's so true.

@dreaminfinity yea it's KellenM.

Yes, some do understand cause they been through it.. The ones that hasn't will never understand, cause they never felt the craving, the urge.

@insomnium yea. My stepmother is that way. She doesn't believe me but she has never experienced it do h doesn't know :/

@nomeolvides gosh, I've had stepmother like that, thank god they are divorced. Some so called friends too,.. Almost all of my school life weren't good, cause no one really understood, I felt so alone- nowadays is bit better than in my time... Cause experiences of depression and cutting are skyrocketing now, in my time- things were handled differently... Very differently

I understand -- I don't have the urge to cut but I do think of dying 24/7

@NayAriBella same here

I knew someone who understood. I don't think she cut, but she's not around any more.

I'm sorry :(
