Melancholic Days

The echo of my thoughts envelops me.
An abyss of apathy has overtaken my soul.
There is nowhere forward and nowhere to go.

Doors slam behind me.
No lights can be seen in the dark.
No heartbeats drum beside me.
Fear settles in and lights a spark.

This darkness is an endless maze.
I don't know where to go.
I can feel its boney and heavy embrace.
I hear my breathing begin to slow.

Yet I know now that it will be ok.
I know none of this is real.
I know that I will be home soon.
I know my emotions are my own to feel.
