This is me (try at a poem)
 
I'll enjoy this high,
before I die.

It won't last long I know,
for I can't fight this foe.

He comes, stalking, at night and day,
I can't keep it at bay.

There is no way I can win this war,
I don't mean to be such a bore.

There is no way to be free,
because, can't you see?
This. Is. Me.

Here's a little bit more:

I'll enjoy this night,
before I fight.
Don't worry, I'll be alright

This here, probably the biggest lie,
I want to die.

Give up,
don't give up pup.

I don't want to live,
but you've got so much to give!

So many say,
but they leave the very next day.

I'm in pain,
what's a little rain?

Is it enough that you kick me when I'm on my knees?
I've paid my fees.

Now is it time to leave?
I wish to receive,

what others search for,
open the door.

Let me in,
it's getting cold out here.

Thanks everyone. I fixed up the ending though:

Let me in,
can you hear me over the din?

It's getting cold out here,
so let me in, be a dear.

Yeah, it actually illuminates how I actually feel at the moment, I want help, I want to be able to "get out of the cold" but I feel as if nobody will actually let me in. My depression haunts me, never leaving me, always stalking me and waiting to strike when I start to feel bad again.

Thanks all, I always thought poem writing would be just beyond my grasp, seems like I reached for it :P
