I am losing myself to this darkness. I do not know which way to turn. The light I no longer see. I only feel pain. Nothing like this before has overtaken me and this I do not understand. I am confused. I cannot help those who need me if I cannot help myself. When shall this darkness lift? When shall the light return? When will this pain go away? I have never been this way in my life. I am at a loss for words. I sit all day staring out the window watching the leaves fall from the trees. I watch as the others come and go, as the door slams shut and opens once again as they return. And yet, I sit. I wait. And I still do not understand these feelings that I have.

The Unknown
I am losing myself to this darkness. I do not know which way to turn. The light I no longer see. I only feel pain. Nothing like this before has overtaken me and this I do not understand. I am confused. I cannot help those who need me if I cannot help myself. When shall this darkness lift? When shall the light return? When will this pain go away? I have never been this way in my life. I am at a loss for words. I sit all day staring out the window watching the leaves fall from the trees. I watch as the others come and go, as the door slams shut and opens once again as they return. And yet, I sit. I wait. And I still do not understand these feelings that I have.
