The Darkness

The Darkness

A Poem by Destinee
"

haven't been able to write in years, maybe this is why

"
The darkness doesn't feel poetic anymore
it's just the deepest exhaustion felt down to my core
It's just the poisonous thoughts coursing through my mind
Vicious and deadly to anything kind

The darkness doesn't feel dramatic anymore
It's just a constant sadness making everything a bore
It's just a cavern of emptiness inside my heart
Vast and endless it keeps me apart

The darkness doesn't feel romantic anymore
It's just an abusive relationship behind a closed door
It's just a pretty smile that doesn't quite reach the eye
Vibrant and practiced, a convincing lie

No the darkness doesn't feel poetic anymore
It's just a numbed pain I've lost the words for

This darkness is called depression. It can be treated.
