Darkness

Just how are you able to tell

the difference between the stages of hell.

The steps of deep depression

hold the key to unfolding the dark well.

Sitting at home while staring out the window

wondering when the day will finally end.

Having the constant fear of a friends knock at the door

and how to approach along with what face to wear.

Crying way too much, not knowing how to stop

eyes forever looking at the second hand on the clock.

Searching for the answer, not knowing the key

Tell me, what stage of hell are you dwelling in?
