I do not live in darkness
Brilliant light bends then breaks
The longer I look
The more quickly it dims
Replaced soon enough
By a sickening grey

No, it is not darkness
Though many call it so
Only a space being filled
With heavy air
Depression
Pressed down

Full stop, I hit a wall
Where existence defies explanation
Crashed into a telephone pole
I curse the fate that saved me
****** demon luck
Nudged me with force
To prolong the years
