Pain of Depression

Sarah

There is a pain in me, a blackened spot that refuses to budge.

A rotting death, seeping and swallowing me whole from the inside out.

It serrated claws tear through my being, stained darkness left in wake.

I scrub and peel back the death it leaves.

Working harder, working faster...

No matter.

There is no eluding the darkness, it is all around me and a part of me.

I am the Pain.
