Depression - Poetry wk 2

This exercise was about working with metaphors and similies...

Depression

The world is so dark,
It is all doom and gloom,
Where is my sparkle?
Why did it leave the room?

I feel so alone,
trapped in a nightmare,
life is falling apart,
I wish I could disappear.

I feel dark inside,
like my heart was ripped out,
no tears left to cry,
yet this pain needs to get out.

It hides in my chest,
dark, silent and lurking,
pain, please go away,
I need to stop this hurting.

And still it persists,
till I can’t take any more,
time to change my life,
so I open a new door,

Light trickles in,
and life tags along,
happiness enters,
Why did you go for so long?
