i can't stop hiding

My life is skipping around
Skipping out from under me
Throwing me from side to side
Not helping with me sanity

Lashing my harms
With scares almost gone
I’m hopping to settle down
I’m hopping it won't be long

I’m waiting for my work to pay off
To give me a place to put my feet
I’m hopping depression doesn't come again
So that I can finally make a seat

Okay... *looks for your name* ...Matt. Hi, nice to meet you.

I really like your poem... however, I'm a perfectionist (sometimes annoyingly so), and so I'm REALLY distracted by all the spelling mistakes.

Also, I don't know quite what you were aiming for here, but it almost seems that you're saying "Yep, so I'm depressed. Yeah, I'm self-destructive and I hate life." in this sort of casual way. Forgive me if I'm misreading... that's just the general impression I'm getting from it.

Hope things get better for ya soon.

This is an interesting view at depression. I, myself, have gone through those waves where it is calm, and then it crests... and all you can do is sit and hope it's over soon. Hang in there... and be sure to keep writing.

I hope I read more soon. Until then, thanks for this.
