I’m alone. I’ve always been alone,period. Or at least, I’ve always felt alone. There’s this dark place inside my mind that grows bigger as each day passes. The dark place has distanced myself from the world and even made me question my very existence. The dark place is toxic....yet, no matter how hard I try to get rid of it, it never leaves. As days turn into weeks and weeks turn into months, the darkness crawls into the depths of my mind and slowly and painfully begins to cover every inch of my body. I’ve continuously attempted to call for help but the darkness tells me to keep quiet. I no longer have the light of my life. And the reason why it is gone is all my fault. Therefore I then again find a way to blame myself rather than find any logical reason about how the situation was truly caused. But none of that matters. It doesn’t matter because I never win. The darkness taught me that. Taught me to tear myself down into believing that I’m worth nothing more than a piece of trash. Thank you depression. I can’t remember a single glimpse of my life before you took the wheel of my body and drove me into darkness. I can’t remember being happy or even the slightest bit of content. But it’s okay because at least..at least the darkness will never leave me.
