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
