Inside My Mind Poem by Tashi Coote

this depressive state, is driving me insane,
just can't seem to live this way,
inside of my mind, i'm not ok,
make it stop, make it stop, please...
i no longer want to live with this disease.

i can't stand it, not at all,
my mind is racing, but my body has stalled.
depression so severe, it's hard to breathe,
i don't feel like the same old me.

take it away, i really need help,
some days i truly feel like killing myself.
