It never ends..

Anxiety holds me back
With the uncertainty
Of a successful attempt.
Depression tells me to
"Try until you die."
Anxiety asks me
"What if you fail?
Where will you be if you fail?"
Before I can think of a response
Anxiety tells me the answer.
"You will be in a place that will
Unleash me upon you
Sending you into a rage."
Then, Anxiety whispers
"Do you really want that?"
Depression responds with
"But, maybe you will be killed in the chaos."
Anxiety then tells me the odds of that are low and the situation would get worse.
Then I think to myself
"Is this really what I've come to?"
Then Depression puts its cold hand on my shoulder and says
"You can lose yourself to us, or we can lose you."

It never ends..

They say look in side yourself to find peace. I look inside myself and find only darkness, pain, and death. So tell me how can I find peace if all there seems to be is destruction, despair, and hate?

I walk this path of darkness alone.
No light shines on me.
For I am the night,
Bound not by your world's chains.
I am free.
Freer than you could ever be.
Unseen to many,
Noticed by none.
Lost in myself.
Waiting for someone,
Someone who will never come.

In it I am alone.
All around is darkness.
In this place I call home.
I see not what others see.
I understand more than others could-ever grasp.

I wander in my world.
Unbeknownst to anyone.
Yet aware of everything.
These shattered foundations,
They can take no more of this stress.

I cry out.
Though am never heard.
Can they not see,
The pain i feel?
I am truly alone in my world.

— The End —
