Dancing in the Dark
A Love Letter to Depression
I fell in love with you as we danced in my room at all hours
As you spun me around, dipping and twirling
We were passionate, as lovers are
Wrapped under the covers all day, intertwined in eachother
Constantly together, always by my side, the one that would never leave.
You understood me like no one else did.
It was as if you could read my mind
As if you were in my head
But you are in my head
You’re always there
Even when I long to be alone
Controlling my every thought and movement,
Filling my head with doubts
I love and I loathe you depression
My oldest friend
my most tempestuous affair
I still cannot decide if you are wrong or right
You still visit sometimes
To catch up like old times
I hope that soon the dances we share will be our last.
I am no longer interested in dancing with the devil
No matter how alluring you may be.
