dawn

as the sun creeps low,

my fears begin to rise.

how i wish time would slow. 

what good can come from night?

not the moon or stars, no

soon, it's the tears i will fight.

here now, the sun is gone.

i sit on the floor in agony

how i wish it was dawn.

the thoughts grow loud

drowning the world out.

depression has become a cloud.

i sit under its shadow,

lost, deep within the abyss.

i know my dopamine is low. 

wait, the sun is coming!

its rays peaking on the horizon.

its light sends my fears running

farther and farther into my mind,

where they wait until the sun is gone. 

but for now, they are confined.
