Sweet old depression

You like a Fat guy sitting on me

You caress me with bitter lies

You touch me here and there 

Bitting at me like some deranged animal

Then you kiss me like a mother nurturing her newborn

Brushing my hair, counting 1, 2, 3 or more like the ticking of a

antique granfather clock, tick tock

faster and faster as time goes by 

eating away at the very happiness left with in me

Your like an umbrella on rainy day except you have

millions of holes in you leaving me wet

cold and helpless with my only hope

running back into my home, locking the door, going under my blanket

my teeth chattering the fear of isolation consuming me

But at the snap of your fingers 

you change like from night to day

You say you love me and you kiss me like its your first time

only to string me along on your invisible chain like a dog or like a slave

But know you choking me, I cant breath im fighting for that last breath 

and then you let me go 

Sad songs, vivid memories and A pounding heart

Why do you still founder me?
