The Fog


Sadness floats around me Hovering Always with me. Like mist, It creeps over me Settles down and suffocates me. The fog of depression hides the sight of happiness. The shadows are dark, Dashing behind every thought, every corner. Thoughts buzz around my mind, Convincing myself What can I do to stop the pain? A blur of the same feelings, Same emotions, Takes over my life, Haunting my every thought, My every dream. Destroying my life. Crushing Burning Pulverizing, Me. Darkness slowly spreads through me. It brushes against my heart and mind, The strokes of it paint my soul the purest dark possible. It destroys all light, all good. It is Ruining me, Killing me.
