Leave Me

I lay here
Thoughts running through my mind

Where'd my life go
Is it forever gone
What happened to me
My independent thoughts
My feelings

I feel naught
Here
Motionless
No emotion
Just...here

Not alive
Not dead
Not anything

My life's gone
Somehow, I'm OK
Not mad or upset
I'm not anything
But depressed

Its a regular
Depression
It rarely leaves
Only short periods
Less and less frequently

I hope I'm gone soon
Completely
I'm only half here anyway
There's no use
Just let me leave
Please

Let me be peaceful
On my own
