Ode to Depression

I still think about you more than I would like
But you are losing your grip on my life
You were seductive for many years
Without me even knowing who you were
Or what you were doing to me
And yet I gave in to your charms

I am stronger now
I know who you are
I know what you do
The scars will always remain and I will never be quite the same
But those will also fade until they are barely noticeable
Some days your seducing will get the better of me
I will not let you win though

I am stronger now
I am aware of you
I will find a way to be me
I will find a way to live with you there
I will use my strength to live a different kind of life
