If I had a flower for every time I thought of you, I could walk in my garden forever.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> &quot;Love, I find, is like singing. Everybody can do enough to satisfy themselves, though it may not impress the neighbors as being very much.&quot;

In the darkness of a new day
I plea with depression
whose here to stay
Erase my sins
and take their place
Don''t ever leave me
For ever more
Hold me close
and keep me cold
give me comfort
when I''m all alone
tell me I''m to blame
tell me you hate me
and your filled with shame
tell me all the things I need to hear
take away all the thing
I''v held so dear
give me a purpose
and something to fear
give me a reason
for death is near

I wrote this one night thinking about everything I stand for...I wanted my dad to be there with me and tell me I'm not a liar and he's sorry. but he isn't so my only friend is depression.
