Broken

I'm scared
Afraid of the Darkness
Closing in
All around me monsters
Of a Past I thought was gone
Racing...Agony impales me
Like a spear thrown by Anxiety's own hand

I fear
The loss of all that I have gained
The return of these demons
Each and every night
Taunting me
Tragically
I give in to their wicked requests
Dig, dig, dig
The hole of my Depression goes deeper
Even as I begin to love once more
Because though I love her touch
I fear the loss tenfold
And I know that I should let it go
But I can't because I'm

Broken
That's all I'll ever be
But I put on this smile
See? I'm ok!
Haha, what a great life it is!
Not really....
Not when you can't escape the prison
Of your own mind
And Depression is the warden
Holding you in so the torturer
Anxiety
Can break you down to bits and pieces
And the only crime you committed
Was existing!

This sadness shall pass
But it will never be defeated
I am only allowed
Brief solace in the prison yard
Yet I'll make the most
Of what I have
Because all I'll ever be is Broken
But maybe...that's not all bad
