Depression is being completely engulfed
Engulfed in a harsh darkness.
A darkness that will never fade
Fade into an inevitable emptiness.
An emptiness that leaves you enslaved
Enslaved in the war against rejection.
Rejection of a paradise
A paradise that ensures love and trust.
Trust that nothing is safe
Safe enough to keep you alive.
Alive to be completely invisible
Invisible to the entire world.
A world that is filled with fears
Fears of endless hatred.
Hatred stemmed off of insecurities
Insecurities that lead to many tears.
Tears from being fragile
Fragile and weak.
Too weak to fight
To fight the blame.
Blamed for causing pain.
Pain that stems from being trapped
Trapped inside a life filled with sorrow.
A sorrow that is consuming
Consuming all hope.
Hope of a normal life
A normal life stolen by isolation.
The isolation of thoughts
Thoughts of suicide.
Suicidal thoughts created by depression.
