~ The Black Room ~
I try to think happy, but my body will not let me. I try to think I still
got my friends, but my stomach growls at me. I try to think that I will
find someone eventually, but then my heart sinks. Depression brings me to
tears as I am down on my knees in the middle of no where. I feel that there
is no one around, that I am surrounded in darkness. But I am tempted with
the feeling of light from time to time. If I ignore it then it stays, but
one cannot ignore what they desire for long. I try to move slowly, I try to
reach out and touch the light, to be closer to the light. But every time I
get too close it goes out. The warmth it brought gone; the light it shined
gone; the happiness it brought gone. Once again I am left in this eternal
blackness. I am left by myself, all alone to think of the light that could
have been with me. The light that comes and goes, I think maybe it will
stay once, but it never does. It just tempts me with its brightness and
then leaves me. I try to fight my desires, but they are too strong. I fear
that one day the light will not show again and I will forever be left alone
is dismal shadows of my despair.
