Colors
My feelings and thoughts
I leave them locked away
Even if I set them free
They'd have nowhere to run
No one to tell
All mixed together like they were never separate
Everything all at once
Yet nothing at the same time
All of my limbs stretched in different directions
In the dark on a too soft and too hard bed
The sun peeping at me through the curtains
I dont want to get up
I dont even want to move
I want to lay here and be numb and cry
This darkness is my friend
I wish it were my only friend
But no
Another stands next to the darkness, fighting it
Darkness wants me to stay here forever, as do i
But this color i can not see fights it
I have to get up
I have to finish my work
I have to look good
I have to be perfect
I greet anxiety as i leave the silence of my depression
Ready to start another day with the two fighting in me
