The Emptiness Within
Depression is a killer
Drinking your hopes, your dreams
Like a thirsty vampire sucking your life's blood.
I've been spiraling up and down
Walking down an endless black corridor
With so many doors to walk through.
I open them hoping to find my way out
Finding they lead to no where
They are hollow looping dead ends.
Only leading me back to the emptiness within.
Drinking your hopes, your dreams
Like a thirsty vampire sucking your life's blood.
I've been spiraling up and down
Walking down an endless black corridor
With so many doors to walk through.
I open them hoping to find my way out
Finding they lead to no where
They are hollow looping dead ends.
Only leading me back to the emptiness within.

you describe what must be a nightmare so well here. it is both a touching and compelling read.
i found myself with the image of a labyrinth of darkest tunnels without the comfort of even the dimmest of lights.
i see you are on top of your game poetically at least.
shine on crimson!

Short and sweet. But think you ment to write no instead of "know" where.

thank you graciously beautiful Jade I often forget my writing journey I had just picked up the pen after being released from the psych ward for the last time.. my meds weren't quite right yet.. so I went up & down quite a bit.. though I see beauty even in depression..
I deeply appreciate you reading & commenting on these funny I never look at them to see where i've been..
love Crim
