My Roommates

Spreading like a Virus

When will the tenants in my head get along?

Why can they not live in a perfect harmony?

I thought anxiety and depression were supposed to go hand in hand?

But I guess three's a crowd.

I am in a love triangle with my body and mind,

Both fighting against me as I fight for them to love me again,

That is if they ever did.

Who knew you could be isolated but not alone at the same time,

How can I be alone with the constant dialogue inside my head?

Swirling around taking up the space,

Spreading like a virus.

My roommates won’t leave the house that is my head,

Meaning it is becoming harder for me to leave mine.
