Why does this hell pursue me?
What do I have that it wants?
Why must it suck every drop of happiness from my soul?
Does it thrive on my misery?
Do my tears sustain its existance?
Does it feed upon my flowing blood?
It is a creature all its own
Never does it cease, never is it quenched
It feeds upon me always
Draining me, killing me
Rendering me lifeless
But it is a cruel beast
Which hides at times
Waiting for my hopes to return
And just as I think all is well
It returns me to the mental hell
And feeds on me forever more
Even as I lay lifeless and cold
It drains every bit of strength
And waits
For it knows that will shall return
The cycle begins again
I need to learn my lesson
The beast will always win
