No comfort in the world

No pleasure in my day

The world falls around me

The howls of fear

Yet no one else can hear

The pain around me

Yet only in my soul

Chilling whispers in my mind

Warning, telling, fearing

An omen of doom to appear

Blinking red, pulsing blue

Anger and emotion

All the pent up rage within

Yet only in my soul

Tall willows, bold and clear

Bent against the passing storm

My world falling into shreds

Strong as iron

Soft as butter

My lifeline shakes and quivers

Yet just my soul is shaking

Brave lion, tall and strong

Give me honor

Find me strength

The day we all must fear

Comes crashing near

Fighting, pulling, tearing

Yet only fighting my soul

The world is growing empty

Silent and clear

But the people stand around me

Nothing to cling to

Nothing to hold

All is barren inside of me

Yet all is empty within my soul

The storm rages all around

Biting, stinging, howling

The wind whips around me

Chilling rain falls

Freezing my very self

The world is all in chaos

Yet only in my soul

The storm is slowing

Rain slackening

Wind calming, getting slow

Brave lion, strong lion

Thank you for the strength

To help me pull through the tide

To calm this battle in my soul

The fog has cleared

My mind is nearly free

The long webs untangle

This one storm has truly passed

You have pulled me free

Yet this is just one storm to face

And I'm always fighting my soul

A/N: I wrote this one a while back, it shows how I felt during an anxiety attack, not about depression.
