Poem

Clinical Depression
I am not attention seeking,
Please don't hurt me with your indifference.
I only need abit of your time,
A few sweet words to keep my hopes alive.

I am not a saint,
Please don't expect me to hold it all together.
How can I behave normally,
When everything is a mess?

I am not strong,
Please don't try to break me.
I am just like you,
Would you do that to yourself?

I am not a tree,
Things you do really affect me.
Is it too much,
To expect abit of privacy and respect?

I am not unfeeling,
Please do not lift me up just to throw me down.
How can I control myself from liking you,
When all you have done mean so much to me.

I am not a criminal,
Please don't trial me like one.
"I am just your student"
Then please treat me like one.

I am not you,
Don't expect me to behave the same way as you.
Of all the things I wish to be known for,
Hate is not one of them.
