It's a sweet siren
A beguiling mistress
This depression of mine
It always calls me back
Lures me to it over and over
Breaking me down again
Sweeping me away
On a flood of desolation
Stranding me
In a field of loneliness
It beckons me
Crooks its little finger
Pulling me back
Back to where I never wanted to be
What do you think?

Welcome to Allpoetry!
The personification of your illness into a temptation - a woman who captures you and pulls you back... that is brilliant. Excellent word choice, and imagery. Your last line is a killer. Something every depressant can relate to.
