16h
I am the jagged reflection of a broken mirror
A representation of hopelessness and fear
Unbridled despair closer than it appears
I throw myself into my own gears
It's told to me
That it's so easy
While easy
Is torn apart with a frenzy
Left with nothing
Just emptiness and suffering
To move on I need
Some kind of buffering
But do I want to move on...?
What an impossible question
I must have missed some lesson
Thankfully I do not sit alone, it's me and depression
