Life of Depression

When depression takes a toll on my life

By Manisha RekhiPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Black spirit hovering over me like a storm over my head

I kept wishing that it will go away but the thin layer of darkness

Continuously torments me instead

It is always creeping into my dreams and

I can't help it to feel terrified

My body is paralysed from the spirit pressing down my chest

I tried to scream

But it turns into white noise

The only way for it to vanish from existence is to drown my sorrows

in blood

I laid down on the cold blankets of snow

Red thickness flowing around me like a flood

Maybe I finally rest in peace
