When joy was all she wanted When death was all she asked for Life became a punishment Living it became a war The days turned into months The months turned into years Once denial faded She had to face her fears And with each passing day She'd try to find a way But with each passing day She'd only fade away -S.H.

Fading
When joy was all she wanted When death was all she asked for Life became a punishment Living it became a war The days turned into months The months turned into years Once denial faded She had to face her fears And with each passing day She'd try to find a way But with each passing day She'd only fade away -S.H.
This was written during one of my depressive episodes. I felt hopeless and life felt like an endless course of going through the motions.
