Dark Thoughts

I wish my thoughts could just disappear they're as black as the night into which i peer. my fears and worries can never be sated depression is for what i am fated Day and night my thoughts black as coal each worry and thought wants their own role they each want to destroy my mind and scatter the pieces, impossible to find year upon year i have fought this battle but my mind herds me to depression like cattle when i look around all i see is black nothing i have, everything i lack i wish i didnt feel this way, that i could get better but i know my fate, down to the letter A hole in my soul, dark, never ending cracks in my mind that will never get mending Maybe one day i can learn to cope instead of resorting to the rope But for now the black is alright because i hope i can find the light
