Despair, Saddness, and Depression,
Bubbling up like thick black tar
To surround every aspect of life.
Everywhere I turn there is the monster,
Seeking to fatally injure me.

Depression, like a python squeezing my heart.
Strangling every thought of love.
Like a blanket of malice covering my eyes,
So I can not see that which I love.

I fight like a madman against his restraints.
Despair, and Depression will NOT have me!
I have let it win before and barely kept my mind.

The surface shows a healthy happiness.
While inside happiness starts to give way to doubt.

How long till the termites of doubt fell the tree of happiness?

Standing on the edge of the world

I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own

Some very well expressed emotions in this piece,
and some excellent imagery as well.
Very nicely penned.
