About depression -
& no I don't have any scars on my wrists
but it fits in well with this.


Praying to curl up & die.


D rowning in a tidal sea

E ncased in black darkness

P raying to just curl up and die

R ipping scared wrists with a knife

E ngulfing saddness numbing the mind

S lowly slipping away

S liding deeper into the Black Dogs mouth

I ntruding eyes that don't understand

O pening veins waiting for death to claim

N o longer happy and wanting to live life.

DEPRESSION!

Probably not personal, but deffinetly a personal matter put heavenly on each of our shoulders so we know the burden to take on board with the subject in the written hand.

Very well, good effort liz xx :)

Cleverly put together. I'm with zoya
"S liding deeper into the Black Dogs mouth"

this is a good image portrays it very well.

And like Zoya It is sad that someone with such a kind thoughtful heart is having such a rough time. I hope writing it has eased some of the angst.

"Sliding deeper into the Black Dogs mouth"

Very aptly put!
Death does seems like a black dog!
Very vividly potrayed feelings!

But they make me very sad for you!

Do you really get that depressed Lizzy darling?
Talk to me, will you?
I am a doctor you know?
