I Hate

I hate the way I was once happy
And you took that life away
I hate how you never seem to rest
But torture me day by day

I hate the way you make it hard for me
To get any sleep at night
And even then you replace my dreams
With nightmares full of fright

I hate the way you insist on staying
When for years I’ve wished you dead
I hate how you’ve made my life such hell
And made me wish for death instead

I hate the way you contort all truth
Into such painful lies
You’re everything I never wanted to be
You’re all that I despise

I hate the way you force my body
To give up and collapse
And whenever I think I might be improving
You give me another relapse

And whenever I see a speck of light
You wash it away with blood
I don’t know if I can be bothered to try
I know I really should

But when I try my very hardest
My attempts are always in vain
Because no matter how hard I try to get better
You fill my life with pain

I also really hate the way
You’ve ruined all of my dreams
Now every time I look in the mirror
I long to tear at my seams

But the one thing I hate most of all
Is the way you make them cry
You hurt the ones I care about
I’ll make sure that you die

I really hate you, depression, I do
And I hope you’ll soon be gone
Because I really can’t stand life like this
You’ll soon realize you don’t belong
