The forgotten killer
Hopelessness
When your body and mind are disconnected
When your falling in a sea of darkness and accept it
When the silence is loud you can hear your heartbeat
It's the feeling of a deep pit
In your stomach
All the contents of your stomach being Consumed by it
Replaced by the feeling of sickness
Leaving a taste of lingering bitterness
Creating an atmosphere in which you question what is the point of living When life feels so meaningless
Clouding your thoughts and taking your happiness
Leaving you with nothing but emptiness
A lingering ache in your chest
Rendering your heart stressed
Pumping the tainted blood around your body, travelling to the mind leaving you depressed
Having to deal with the lifelong effects
