It's my life, but someone has to live it.... by Ann MillsMy fear is the monster behind the closed door
easier left unopened, unmet nevermore.
Must I find now the courage to rise to the task?
Can I not turn away, in my cowardice bask?
Do you feel my pain as it feeds my fear
in unending cycle, sanity unclear...?
I have spiraled into depths while unaware
in self-delusion, seemingly with no care.
The roar of depression scourges my soul,
the chance of redemption may render me whole....
