Wow I really like this. At first I was just thinking in my head you shouldn't live life thinking 'If I never' type of thing. But the ending completely changed my perspective. Being the romantic sap that I am I thought that this poem was great. One point I really liked was that you kept with the same theme through out your poem with the 'If I never' and 'I would of' I didn't get the title at the beginning but after reading I got it and thought that it was really clever. I always like that titles that end up clicking in the end or at one point in the writing because it makes them feel more accomplishing for both reader and writer but it makes it fun. One thing that could potentially change depending on your perspective of it would change "I would of never" to "I would have never" I don't know if that makes much of a difference but just an idea. Anyways great job!
Keep up the lovely writing!

I see the links in this poem. I like the way it is layed out, giving us lots of information somehow without going into much detail, and by that I mean we didn't get to see the personal struggles, just the overall, general road being traveled down. I agree with Dreamwork that maybe something else the second time, could be used in place of depression because its almost as if the narrator gets depressed twice, when, I assume that it was one long bout.

Now, even tho I do like the structure, what if you just threw in one part where it was different from the rest? Maybe it could punch us in the teeth even more by standing out like a crooked tooth. Just a thought for improvement, because It's already quite studly as it is currently.

great showcase of a life-changing progression! Write more poems because I would enjoy seeing them too!

Hello there. A quick review for your poem
It looks very different and I have to admit it is quite unique in terms of its delivery. It has a story, and I love how you write at the end of the poem. It was something unexpected.
Here, repetition with the same purpose, and I think by using other word would bring a bit of variety.

I would of never been depressed.

If I was never depressed,
I would of never drifted to depression.

If I never went in to depression,
