My Depression Poem by Laura Buchanan

My Depression

Rating: 5.0


Every breath feels labored
Every heartbeat feels forced
Nothing is real
Nobody cares

My life means nothing
I have no purpose
Everyone looks though me
I’m invisible

Every grade is judged
If I don’t meet their expectations
They take everything out of me
Don’t they no I’m human to?

Every time I say ‘I don’t care’
They say ‘yes you do’
I really don’t care what grade I get
As long as I know that I did the best I can

They don’t understand
They would not have survived my life
Not one year
They would have don’t what I couldn’t

They know happiness
I don’t, haven’t in a long time
I don’t have friends
I have people who laugh at me
