so S.A.D.


shivering and shaking

not breath-taking 

silence

fear

so severe

that tears

fall faster than angels

voices

telling me

i'm hated

i'm being watched

by shadows

i'm being eaten

by fear

unwanted eyes

peering into my soul

every task

unwanted challenge

waiting

to see me break

into pieces

into a mess
