A heavy fog fills the sky of my heart.

Blocking the view of my life falling apart.

A smile to hide the pain within.

I am trapped inside a mask covers the storm I’m in.

A weight that presses against my soul.

Wondering if I am ever going to be whole.

In darkness, I look for a spark.

To lead me out of the dark.

But shadows haunt me day and night.

Blinding me from the guiding light.

Peace within, I am trying to find.

But I can’t escape the war in my mind.

Depression seeks to suck me in.

Muffling out any sign of hope within.

But I won’t give up without a fight.

Even if it is walking through the dark night.

What doesn’t kill you makes you strong.

I hope I don’t end up proving myself wrong.

I am trying to pick myself back up.

Clumsily walking like a pup.

I will learn to walk this rocky path.

I will learn; my life I am taking back.
