Another day
Spent
In the company
Of
Depression

It's fine when I'm with others
I busy myself with conversation
Even though
I'm too tired to talk about
Anything
Interesting
I make small talk, pointless
Remarks, I'll say anything
To make the silence shut up

When I come home
I turn the music on,
As loud as it gets
I breathe music,
I don't dare to leave my phone behind,
Turn off the music, I feel like
The second the music stops,
I might just fall down
On the floor
And not find the strenght to
Get up

My sister got married today
It was all smiles
And laughs
Cakes
And
Calories
And cold sweats
Dreading the food
But I ate
I talked
I existed

But when I got home
I turned on the music
As loud as it gets
And tried to silence
This screaming
Void
In my chest

The music never gets loud enough
