Debra Bunt - ME

Depression is a dark place, a place you don’t want to be
Some days are better than others, but those are few and far between

Depression can make things look different
It puts you in a different world

You look for the light to shine one day
But the light seems so far away

Depression affects my family and friends
I don’t have the will to do things with them

I try really hard to overcome this demon
With pills and prays but someday are just so hard

Others don’t understand depression
Only because they think it’s by my choice

But walk a day in my shoes and see what I go through
You will find the darkness, sadness and feelings of doom

Depression is not a place I want to be
So I fight with all my might

For one day I will be free of this darkness
One day I will be ME
