Take Me Under

Take Me Under

By: Tyler Ross

Depression, take me under.

I don’t deserve nice things,

you took the love from her.

I’m depressed too, 

can’t you see?

I’m buried in sadness,

and

that hardening feeling of loss

is overcoming me.

I sleep less,

I dream in nightmares.

I think about you still

and why the fuck

do I still care?

You left me cold,

sad and alone,

while you got happier 

far over there.

Please stop this!

The feelings come and go,

but won’t stay away.

I still want you

and

I don’t know why that is.

You stepped all over me,

used me,

and

white lies to cover up who the fuck knows.

But as a human being loving another,

I still got love for you

and

I don’t think you deserve me,

or

the time I still want to give you.

Fuck!

Depression, take me under.
