In the shadows, I reside, unseen,
Where silent screams echo, a haunting scene,
An endless night devoid of stars,
A heart in chains, weighed down by scars.

Anxiety whispers with a voice so cold,
Fear grips tight, refuses to let go,
Every breath a battle, a silent plea,
For peace, for solace, to be free.

Depression looms like a heavy cloud,
Drowning out the world, muffling the sound,
A void so deep, no light can breach,
A soul adrift, far from reach.

Yet in this darkness, a flicker remains,
Hope’s fragile light, through the pain,
A promise that dawn will break anew,
And strength will rise, from shadows, true.
