Depression (Iteration 10)

The nightmares and the insomnia have come back
As have the devils and their deviled fantasies

After all this time they tell me once again exactly how I crack
How my own very Sun fails
How I terror right through my Self

So I travel through this world with a torch
That I hold onto, knowing it breathes
Everything I want and desire
Knowing how I feel and believe and love

And despite all of this
All of the waking and dreaming of
Desperation
It seems I still breathe, still breathe
Through the chest of death
Holding onto the torch of love

M.M.
