My hope was gone
My love was lost
For I now payed the awful cost
To end the pain deep within
A blackened heart once so pure
To stop the poison without a cure
Just when my hopes began to rise
Depression came to my demise
And dragged me deep into embrace
One of which I couldn't escape
I fought and struggled to the end
Only to be dragged down again
I cursed myself for the coward I was
For hardening myself against the pain
For it would have been short and would've been sweet
Before I could sweep her off her feet
But now i struggle to fill the void
That threatens the emotions I try to protect
Paranoia whispers to me
Lies and gossip I know not to be
Anger and sadness both collide
To soothe to deadly storm inside
Will I ever find a cure?
Even now I am not sure....
