In The Dark

I am alone here in the black abyss that is my depression.
No one here beside me here, just the darkness all around me.
Pressing against me, a darkness so black that it consumes your very being.
Until you become part of the blackness, a lost soul in the void.
Sure you can scream out for help, but no one will hear your screams.
After awhile you will realizes that screaming wont help,
when that moment comes you will know that there is nothing you can do.
No matter  what you try to do you will be stuck in this black void.
Until one day maybe a month from now maybe a year or more,
you become one with the void.
Your being becomes the black void that consumes other souls who become stuck there.
Now knowing all of this you will try and fight what is to come
and I can not blame you for wanting to,
after all it is a human reaction
to fight in order to keep ones self safe.
Yet I am here to tell you that this is one battle that you will not win.
This is something that you can not beat for it is in every person.
For some of us it rest deep in our soul, where it grows stronger consuming us.
What you must accept now is that this is your fate,
this is what you were meant to do,
meant to feed the void and keep it going.
So that it may lay claim to the next generation and the one after that and so on.
It has been there since the beginning of time and shall remain here till the very last human dies.
Until that day comes my dear you are stuck, a sort of nutrient for it.
Perhaps when the end of the human race does come,
and there is no more souls for it to consume it will die out
leaving us behind to go free,
reunite with family we had left so many years ago.
I only hope and pray that that day will come some day soon,
for I grow so weary of tell this tale and being kept in the dark.
If I had but one wish it would be to feel the sun on my face one more time,
for I have spent much to much time alone in the dark.
