Depression is a disease like that of HIV. <br />It starts as something small, <br />Something that you can control. <br />If you never tell? <br />If no one ever sees? <br />If no one ever knows? <br />If no one ever tells? <br />The minute hand is ticking. <br />Your time is being counted. <br />Then all of a sudden <br />It hit you from nowhere. <br />Just like HIV becomes aids <br />As the time passes. <br />Depression, <br />Depression soon becomes <br />A suicidal tragedy. <br />It spreads <br />It spreads <br />You hear the sounds <br />Of screams for help. <br />Taste the stories in the tears <br />Able to see how much pain <br />There is inside <br />By the number of scars, <br />The amount of blood, <br />And how deep the cuts are. <br />The answers are their <br />But your eyes are closed <br />Your heart is closed <br />Your mind is in denial.<br /><br />Jessica Hernandez (teardrop)<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/depression-is-a-disease/
