Dark place, dark room.
Mindless thoughts, overwhelmed her.
She tries to escape, to get rid of it.
It's an endless maze, one after the other.
She rocks back and forth,
To find solace in the moment
She whispers 'It will all be okay'
Honestly, when will it be?
Surrounded by a lot of people,
Chattering and laughters resonates the halls
She joins in with the crowds,
But that is just it, she joins but she felt far, she falls.
How is it possible to be lonely in a place filled with a lot of people?
She felt pain in her whenever she forced herself to smile
She kept telling her friend 'I wanna get out of here'
But that friend could only offer words of comfort through text as she suffer.
It was the time she recollects her dark past that made her like this,
She kept seeing everything in dark red lights,
A burden, on everyone around her, mind fights
So she kept quiet, putting a happy mask first.
2 weeks gone by, 3 weeks gone by.
Eventually it became a month.
She kept hoping her dark thought fly,
For now, she cast a bright front.

When depression becomes your only friends.
