Lovely poetry About Depression

My bedroom

My bedroom is quite girly
It has baby pink walls
That i picked out when i was 6
I have pink flower curtains
With baby elephants
And butterflies
Hanging from the rod
Pictures and posters of things
That are the past now
Coat my walls
One night
I was thinking
Overthinking
bout everything
Everything that has gone wrong with my life
I stood up in a frenzy
And a rush of energy just surged through me
I jumped around my room tearing everything off my walls
All the posters
And pictures
And decorations
That have been there for years
Were all gone in a matter of moments
I sat on my floor
With tears rushing down my face
I glanced up and saw the damage
The damage that i had done to my childhood room
I ran downstairs
I grabbed 3 buckets of black and white paint
I painted my whole room
The color of my thoughts
How black and white they were indeed
I stood back smiling
And flung back on my bed
And feel into a peaceful sleep
