Depression bites at your ankles, feels like glass shards embedded in your feet with every step you take,painful at first and then numb.
Whispering sweet nothings in your ear
"you're garbage"
"you're ugly"
"*****,
****,
useless,
why are you even alive?"
With every step you take your bones go brittle and break.
There's a parasite in your brain, there's an elephant on your chest, and everything gets heavy.
Your eyelids start to close, falling into a deep slumber to get away from reality.
But instead you have nightmares,
of that day ,
of that night,
of that month ,
of that year,
and they repeat themselves over and over again making sure you never forget; and you won't.
Finally you wake up and it's been two days since you last got out of bed.
You heave a heavy sigh as the pattern starts all over again.
