One of the Reasons....

• Artist: dragonkat99
• Description: So I'm pretty depressed. I've been suicidal for a long time, and i can't seem to get any help. I listen to my friends whenever they need to talk, no matter what it is. But when i turn to them for the kind of help i give them, they don't seem to care. So i wrote this for them. I still love all my friends... i just wish they'd at least try and listen to me some of the time....

One of the reasons
Of my
Casual Depression,

Is the people
Who think they make
It all better.

They just don’t
Seem to get
That all I ever do,

Is listen to them
Talk about their
Problems.

I’m forced
To help
Them,

When they
Never take the time
To think about me.

I’m stuck here
Crying
And cutting,

Keeping it all
Inside
Just so they feel better.

I try telling them,
That I have
Problems just like theirs,

And that I need
Just as much
Help as any of them.

But they don’t
Listen
To me,

All they do
Is talk
About themselves.

I sit there
And listen
To all their issues,

About
Love
and Life.

And all I
really
want

Is for someone
To listen to
what I have to say.

I'm here if you ever want to talk or something. I won't do what my friend did to me. Never.

I can relate to you. One of my closest friends suffers depression. i've been depressed lately, though i've kept it to myself. my sis suffers from manicdepression/bipolar disorder.
I have all my friends problems on me. And the sad thing is, they don't realise that i have my own problems too. I felt so cheated when i stood up for her when she was picked on, stood by her when she was down. Then, when i was picked on,she just sat there, silent. When i was down, she left me on my own so she could w

Really awesome 5 stars. Bravo, you speak your heart and that shows you care for your work. The emotions and pain is real, and a common feeling, as I as well feel this. Good job, if you want to talk about poems or you just need to vent go ahead and pm me. :]
