It slowly crept into my head
at first just a small whisper
easily forgotten easily pushed aside
but it did not stay this way
oh how it grew and became stronger
it only took one time to listen to its words
and it held me in its grips
with no promises of ever letting go
this creature only promised death
although my therapist calls it depression
i call it a horrible creature with little room to escape

Worthless.
Pointless.
Less than nothing.
This is the end? Dare I disagree
How can it end if it never began?
A wasted life, a wasted existence
Such a withered husk to ever be called a man.
Is the thought of happiness so hard to bear?
Dare I ask for peace and friendship before my end?
Never, for it should be hard to find peace and friendship
When I've no one I can honestly call a friend.
My time is coming with the click of the hammer.

Ready to leave forever this horrible place.
Final is the world beyond my gaze
Nobody will miss me, know
I am waiting, waiting for it to go away. The gnawing in my brain, the endless mania that never stops, never rests in it's presistance to drive me closer to the bottom of insanity.
Can I turn it off this time? Can I smile and be the pretty girl with everything figured out?
Will it crush me this time? Because I am drowning in the loneliness of my monsters creation.
How can you love me if I won't let you? There is nothing left in me that's good.
Where do I hide from this? Because my only salvation has fled.
The alternatives while effective will feed a starving beast, and rising from that pit the familiar jaws of consumption will rise and I
You can look everywhere
But you won't find it
You can listen carefully
But you can't hear it
I know it's somewhere
I know it's there
But I'm unable to reach
Peace
