I can feel it all around me
Threatening my fragile sanity
It’s so dark I can’t see anything
Except for your eyes
But they are closed
And I don’t blame them
Or you
I wish I could be safe too
From the shattering of the mirror
I don’t like what I see there
Is this the life that I’ll have?
Up, down,
Side to side?
The depression is taking
The control away from me
Right now their words have potential
To heal
But they only batter and bruise
I’m so exhausted
I no longer want to be used
It’s interesting
You see
How blurry reality is
To me
I’m not alive as you thought I was
And I’m not sure I want
To be
