The perpetual darkness
I’m Sitting in a dark corner of the room
The light barrels at me but doesn’t touch my gloom
I’m over and under and all around
I know better then to make a sound
The wall feels heavy on my back
Carries all the things I lack
The darkness deepens and calls my name
I start to feel like I’m insane
I lay in bed for days on end
Staring at space and let thoughts transcend
The blank feeling is so numb
It keeps me from all I become
The darkness follows everywhere I go
It weighs me down and it grows and grows
The grey and black knows
Even when I hide it shows
In my bed I fall asleep
Nightmares haunt me, make me weak
Climb a mountain to its peak
Watch myself, outcomes bleak
These dark days I know too well
Depression is an evil spell
Worried about everything
The dark days and what they bring
So I’ll just lay in bed
Hoping someday to clear my head
Waiting for it I dread dread dread
Watch dark clouds form overhead
Angry clouds they spread
Pouring rain hits me hard
Fills up each and every scar
My mind grows far
I search for the stars
