I feel it calling out

From somewhere deep inside

It creeps in and consumes until

There is nowhere left to hide

I can see just fine

I don’t look because

I’m scared of what I will find

I need someone who can

Help me find the way

To bring myself back again

Hold on to me

I’m slipping into the darkness

It’s getting harder for me to breathe

Please take this weight off of my chest

Is it real or is it all inside of my mind?

Either way it feels the same

Can’t keep pretending that

I always feel fine

There must be another way
