Circle of darkness.

by William Woodrow   Aug 28, 2005


Sadness, falling into the blackness
of depression.
It reaches out for me,
calls me by name,
enticing me.
it says to let go,
crawl inside and hide
from everything that hurts.
It tells me know one cares,
no-one understands
and inside no-one will reach me,
I'll be alone.
It plays tricks with my mind
makes me think of things
I know are wrong, not true.
Once it grabs me,
the sadness consumes me,
brings tears to my eyes,
makes a fire in my heart and mind
trying to consume me.
I look out and see peaceful solace
a quite place to hide,
but I know deep inside its a lie
and there is only darkness.
Sometimes I crave for the darkness
to take me away,
to bring me to another reality,
but scared of what
that reality is.

I usually don't do depression poems but sad love. Please rate and comment on how it it.
thanks
