Darkness Of Life
Every morning I wake up,
Depression blanketing me.
It feels like I'm unable
To get away or be free.
I don't know if I can
Keep doing this anymore.
Every day seems to become
Even more of a chore.
I don't know how to get better.
I can't escape this dark place.
I can no longer keep
This fake smile on my face.
Life keeps getting worse
More and more each day.
I have no clue how to
Stop it or make it go away.
Every day this darkness
Finds its way inside of me,
Constantly tormenting me.
Why won't it let me be?
I don't have the strength
To pick myself up off the floor,
And I don't think I want
To save myself anymore.
