I feel time is running out,
That I’m drowning and have no air.
I feel sad and alone,
That there’s nobody there.1
I feel I’m being swallowed,
By a deep black hole.
I feel I’m slowly dying,
Pain killing my soul.2
I feel that I’ve slipped,
And I’m falling and falling.
I feel I will never stop,
And I hear death calling.3
I feel that I’m sinking,
And I’m too far down.
I feel no one can hear me,
That I can’t make a sound.4
I feel as though I’m lost,
In a sea full of pain.
I feel my tears falling,
Onto the earth like rain.5
I feel I’m somewhere distant,
A place that’s far away.
I feel my life slipping,
And I know that I can’t stay.6
I feel hurt and alone,
So torn and cold.
I feel the pain is everywhere,
And there’s no hope to hold.7
I feel my soul’s broken,
That I’m going to bleed to death.
I feel my blood seeping,
Every time I take a breath.8
I feel so much sorrow,
I want to hide and cry.
I feel I can’t go on,
And I know I’m going to die.9

I love the second stanza, and the repetition of I feel, it made the poem read so smoothly. I can relate to what your saying in this peice, far more then I wish I could. It was emotional, thoughtful, and overall wonderful. Glad your feeling better now.

WOAH. That is........ woah....... This is precisely the thoughts that a lot of people with depression have. It's really sad and scary too, because depression is a sickness - it can get anyone at any time. No matter who you are or how much you try not to get it.
This is really sad.... well written though ^^"
