I can't remember why

Why am I,

Still sitting here,

In this lonely bed?

-

I can't remember how I got here

In the layers of depression,

I can't remember why I'm still going,

Trapped in my own mind.

-

All I can do, is crawl through days,

Nothing to look forward to,

Only dread can fill my head.

-

Yet I'm urged to stay alive,

By people around me.

Why? Do they want me

To suffer in torture?

-

What's the point?

My stomach hurts every time I think,

And every time I eat,

And every time I cry.
