Lightness Or Darkness

Darkness is coming upon us. I sit here and think. Why do I do this to myself? Why do I bring sadness in? And just push joy out. Where did all these feelings start? Such anguish and desire for pain is not normal. I'm not normal. I've taught myself that this is ok, that its good to feel a bit of depression. It is truly not. Its eating away at me, piece by piece. God created Lightness in us. But darkness has taken over me. It has become me.
