Depression At Fifteen



We managed seven months of glory and pain
each passing day my love for you would gain
your soul became blended into mine
my soul carries yours until the end of time
I lie down at night and dream of what we had
I feel so good in the dream
yet I awake and feel so bad
because I know that it was just a dream
that is all it can ever be
I can no longer live a life
but merely a fantasy
a fantasy of holding you
in my arms once more
only memories are left to cling to
so I can not let go or ever close that door
tonight as I lie wearily in my bed
visions of our past dance in my head
tonight and every night until I lie dead
