Demons of Depression
A cry for help that goes unnoticed
One in which my mind lost focus
My silence shows the way I feel
Until my thoughts have had time to heal
Losing my voice is not my choice
Anxiety won’t let the words come out
In my head they scream and shout
They travel at a pace so fast
A black shadow is what they cast
Speeding faster than I can process
My words have become my biggest losses
Shutting down without control
It is something that takes its toll
For many people think they get to me
But, for that’s not true reality
For I just need time to think
About the way my words should link
A minute to just think and breathe
So my head is the space that I can leave
