I scream into the void, a desperate call for help
Hoping this time someone hears my silent yelp
But the world keeps spinning, never noticing
The pain and suffering hidden, all too frightening
I continue to scream into the void, a deafening silence
Desperate for someone to notice my pain
My struggles hidden behind a mask of normalcy
But the weight of my demons suffocates me
The darkness creeps in, suffocating my soul
I fight to stay afloat, my mind a warzone
But the battle takes its toll, a never-ending cycle
And I fear the end result, a dark abyss
I long for someone to see, to truly understand
The pain that grips my heart, suffocating and harsh
But the world keeps spinning, oblivious to my fight
Leaves me alone, trapped in eternal night
The weight of my demons pummels me relentlessly
Dragging me down to depths unknown, so unconsciously
And though I fight and claw my way to the light
The darkness still wins, stealing all of my might
Depression is a silent killer, I whisper to myself
And though I plead for help, it seems to fall on no one else
I keep fighting, day by day, never giving up
But the loneliness and emptiness seem too much
So here I am, alone in my own mind
Fighting demons and depression of the darkest kind
Desperately wanting to be noticed, to be understood
But the world keeps spinning, as if nothing's happening as it should
And so I take one last deep breath, and let it go
For the darkness has won, and I can no longer show
My struggle, my fight, emotions and pain
The darkness continues to reign.
