Poetry: Depression

A blackness reigns
Supreme control
I am merely a pawn
Under a kings command

It rules my life
And I live within
A constant battle
To reach the light
From its dark depths

Flickers of hope
Bright lights on a day
A callous switch
To the next nightmare

To fight
Its hard
I live in hope
To escape the imprisonment
That binds me so close

    by Ali Farbanish

    A shadow flees through the night
    Swift and stealthy
    A demon
    with glowing red eyes
    She stops
    in front of a bistro
    Moves in,
