Its there...
Beneath the skin
Hiding from the light
of day
Coursing through
fragile veins
It can turn the
comfortably sweetness of life sour
Seeping in through the
cracks of abandonment
It hits without
warning...
Digging deep into the
depths of the soul
This invisible force
carries such power
It steals through the
living moments
Staining all happiness
Taking the will of
life...
The voice to call out
And even the name we
give our being fades...
Memories fail at
remembrance
The final defense
against invasion turns the tides
A war within breaks out
Feelings turn blind
Emotions run fast
The dull ache gambles
with all that can be broken
The world pulls at
tender skin
Tears fall from this
newly worn mask
Trembling fingers wipe
away tears
Hands reach out
screaming
Boundaries drawn out of
fear
Now become the walls
built beyond the comprehension of sight
A prison of
blackness...
A cage of depression...
Here at the edge
Time stops...
Feet barely hold their
ground
The mirror within bares
witness
A reflection of life in
transition
Reality is existence...
Its in plain view...
The question now is...
Will you let it choose
you?
Or consume you?
