A darker shade of grey.
The light gets washed away.
Able to barely move like running in a dream
It’s not what it seems
It robs us of the things that make us want to live again
Feels like I’ve lost a friend
And then it all comes fading in as if to say, “How was your day? Did you try to smile away the sadness just to fail again?”
This life is paper thin
And then we reawaken on another page
Don’t act your age
Act out your rage
Illusions before us
To hinder the self
One must become ones own savior
So you may breath again
