  A Song to The Lost

  Dominated,
Overrun by power,
I have been defeated,
So why go on?

The power of depression,
Has left me weak,
I have been drained,
Drained of strength,
So let me sleep.

Depression overruns me,
I can’t hold on,
Inside we all feel lonely,
We’ve all been wronged.

The help I’ve received,
Failed,
I know I should give up,
Why keep going,
When all hope is lost.

You counsel me,
You lecture me,
You don’t understand,
This destroys me.

Depression overruns me,
I can’t hold on,
Inside we all feel lonely,
We’ve all been wronged.

Give in and just cry,
Cry out in the night,
Scream until you bleed,
Give the world a fright.

Emily, aside from a few vernacular changes...this is commendable work for a 17 year old writer...You have writing skills that are well worth persuing.You appear to have a strong suit in structuring right now...Don't pay any mind to unconstructive comments...Each poem you scribe, each day you write a poem...you will look back not so far down the road & you will marvel at the progress you've made...Be versatile, diversified....Read the work of many of today's Contemporary Poets, moreso, than our Classic Poets......And then adopt your own niche/style....Good Luck, young lady.
