Someone can come into your mind and take control of your thoughts in complete silence. Without even realizing it, they are the only thing you think about. And whenever you do it fills you with joy. You fight against it. This can't be happening!
And then you give up, you embrace it and let it be a part of you. A part that makes you happy, that makes your days brighter, your soul lighter and your demons quiet down. In that one moment, life seems to be so full of possibilities.
Then it is gone. From one day to the other, all the things that filled you with such happiness and joy only make you feel sad and depressed. You lose your hope. You feel alone, even as you are surrounded by people. And you can't help it. You look everywhere for a distraction, anything that can pull you out of your thoughts. Yes, the ones you would feel so at peace in.
At first, it may seem like it is working. Somehow, the sadness is being kept at bay. But the moment your mind wanders back to that...you drown in the sadness.
What can you do when a part of you is taken away? When your hopes and dreams are killed and destroyed? What happens to you when the things that made you happy make you sad?
You don't know. Even as you read this, you are reminded about that. Maybe someday you won't feel so sad.
