Tucked away from the view of the world
I am
Locked out of sight of those that do judge
I am
Riddled with contempt of other’s strength
I am
Hiding my face and refusing to let anyone see
I am
Afraid to breathe lest I divulge my hiding place
I am
Breaking people in two and families asunder
I am
Ensnared by the turmoil that eats away inside
I am
Fallen from the light into the darkest of times
I am
My name spoken on the lips of the persecuted
I am… Depression©

I like it, but it’s bleak.
Thanks. Yes, you are feeling the emotion behind it. Depression is often quite a bleak time. Appreciate you reading! xx
I thought you were Trump.
HAHAHA!
‘Ensnared by the turmoil that eats away insides’, — it reflects the feelings so well.
