Depression
Aching loneliness
Deep despair
I'm tired of fighting
I do not care
My heart beats
beneath my breast
a blackened void
inside my chest
I feel too much
I feel too little
I am weak
I am brittle
Pain, sadness, no joy at all
I want it to stop, to cease, to end
Heart is breaking, nothing left
As I stumble, down I fall
Too late to fix
No hope, no light
A lost cause, a troubled soul
I feel so out of control
