The darkness fills my mind
It chews me up
And spits me out
In this darkness
I can no longer see
I can no longer feel
I can no longer move
I can no longer breathe
I’m suffocating
In my own darkness
I can see the light
But I can never reach it
This abyss of darkness
Has claimed my life
It has claimed my soul
Why can’t anyone see my darkness?
Why won’t anyone help me walk to the light?
I can’t bare it anymore
I just want to let go
And let the darkness take over
I can’t fight anymore
I have lost the war
This poem is about depression and what it feels like to suffer from depression on a daily basis. It never really leaves you, it just hides and waits for the perfect time to attack.
“Depression is like a war. You either win or die trying”
