Depression
  Depression
  I am an angel
  One of pure darkness
  I forbear this dark entity
  And refuse to be loquacious
  For fear of discovery
  If revealed,
  This secluded part
  Could do more harm than good
  If released,
  The evil will seep
  And attack
  Therefore I must keep hidden
  Although I am an angel
  I am not an acceptable one
  I have hidden for years
  I have tried to be like a dove
  Light and ready to become pure
  I have fought for this Darkness to leave
  And yet it stays
  For it prefers to devour happiness
  And favorable memories
  Leaving a path of destruction
  In its atrocious wake
  It has become exhausting
  To hold this monstrosity back
  It is unmovable
  No drugs or therapy can help
  For those services are only temporary
  And I am forced
  To live with this black, bubbling tumor
  Everyday
  It gets lonely
  Being completely alone
  Aside from the burning mass inside
  If there was an angel of light to help me
  I could peradventure survive
  The darkness consumes everything
  Faster than light.

I have depression and I thought it would be a good idea to write about it and bring awareness to teen depression. I did this because most adults without this condition, don't fully realize the struggles of modern depression. I hope to spark a more acute awareness to modern day teen depression.
