I'm drowning in sorrow and all the missed,
I missed so many opportunities
How can I possibly find joy?

Small bits of life, of my life,
The good old times,
Can send a quick second of happiness
Running through my body
But it never lasts

It's not enough
That small sliver of light
Doesn't make up for all the dark shadows
Which encompass the entire room

That small sliver makes the surrounding shadows appear darker
It makes the misery seem so much worse, so much more intense
I need a branch, something sturdy; not a sliver
Maybe a large branch of light would overtake the shadows

The happiness doesn't seem to overtake
The pool of misery and depression
That I seem to be sinking in

I need strength, I need to be heard
People seem to only want to listen
Once they see the colors,
Once the pain is visible

I can't just be there for them,
They need to be there, too

Why don't they understand this isn't some game
You cant just quit and leave me to keep on going
Its not the kind of thing that can be erased
Abandonment is all your good for

Times change and people change
But true friends are supposed to always be there,
To always care They're supposed to continuously
Listen and take action,
Save me as I drown
