Draining Out (Depression Always Wins)

God damn, another opened vein, the bleeding signifies the ending. Upwards, not across the wrist, you don’t crave attention. You’ve tried hard to beat this depression but it always seems to have gotten the upper hand. Beats you down, drains you out.
You’ve done everything from medications to therapies but the despair never did subside. Beats you down, it will drain you out.
The day drags on so slowly, the hopelessness has declared residency. Anxiety, another familiar face, just another squatter. You’re tired of trying to find that something, anything to fill up the hours of the day. Beats you down, it’ll drain you out.
You’ve had your fill of words of encouragement, now everybody just looks annoyed. Beats you down, drains you out.

You have in hand a razor, ready to dance it up your arm. Time to get your self-harm on. I’m guessing they’ll be no hesitation marks, you have this no nonsense way about you. Your problems are unresolvable, it feels safe to state, you’re damaged beyond repair. Your broken and ruined, feeling ruined.
Much like summer leafs in the autumn, you have fallen and are withering on the soil. Beats you down, drains you out.
Lying back against that naked walnut tree, your life is rapidly slipping away. Beats you down, you are draining out.
