What Have I Become

I once was a girl

Who was young and innocent and carefree  

But something changed within me

And the world turned against me

Ambivalence and dissonance now engulf me,

Creating something of anxiety inside me

I'm drowning in the depression sea 

The life inside of me wanting to flee

I'm being attacked by something unseen

The pain and misery I feel

Is something so surreal

But I'm bound to these feelings

I'm anchored to the bottom of the sea

The demons inside me bury me deep...

What have I become?
