Depression
It is a hole.
A deep, dark abyss.
My mind is elsewhere,
and all of my thoughts are amiss.
My eyes are shielded by darkness,
yet I can see clearly.
I endlessly wander inside the nothingness
and scream, but no one can hear me.
Why? Why am I here?
There's one thing I lack.
It is the key to healing,
and I desperately need it back,
But maybe I don't need it.
In this darkness, I am alone.
Alone and deep in my thoughts.
I find comfort in the unknown.
But the more comfortable I become,
the deeper I sink and the more I dissipate
until I'm gone.
Until my presence disintegrates.
