Mental Illness
It happens when you don't expect it.
Wandering, creeping...
Seeking and finding...
Never satisfied. planted in your mind,
Eating at you happiness,
Always wanting more.
Sucking away your life,
Changing your thoughts,
Body,
And soul.
You'll never be rid from it.
Trapped in a cage.
Stuck behind steal bars.
Walking in quick sand.
Sinking, sinking, SINKING...
Pressure building
Fear rising.
People watch and stare.
Stuck in your mind.
Suffering from a mental illness.
Pushing EVERYONE away
No help at all.
Everything worsening
The illness has spread.
You can't leave the state of depression...
