Pain


Darkness wraps around me like a blanket

Smothering me

Depression embeds itself in my soul

Marking me

 

Fear is simply a weak mindset

Incapacitating me

Happiness is just an allusion

Taunting me

 

Numbness is a long overdue visitor

Soothing me

Pain is an all too familiar friend

Saving me
