A Darkness Within [Living with Anxiety and Depression]

three

Three.

Waking up,

It's hard to get out of bed.

Walking,

Working.

I move through the motions.

But it all feels pointless.

Food lost its appeal,

Yet I know I need to eat.

I want to lay in bed,

Drown myself in sleep.

But I can't.

It takes everything in me not to cry out.

Everything I have pushes me through the motions.
