Insurmountable emotions
An understanding of brokenness
Loneliness incumbent
Death’s hollow emptiness
Resident of the heart
Purveyor of ills
Torturer of minds
Master of thrills
Words of wisdom
Depression’s deaf ears
Killer’s instinct
Life’s endless fears
Brittle life, brittle bones
Fragile mind, hefty tomes
Suggestible demeanor
Ever, always, kill the dreamer
Empty threats, obscure desires
Hold your breath, extinguish fires
Fear and wanting, all the same
Listen closely, you know my name
A calling in my heart, insurrection
A battle of the mind for my protection
Insistent with its claws, this my depression
Hold your peace; we’re now in session
