Choice

I see darkness with my closed eyes,
but I also see it with the open eyes
The darkness inside me
Don't know the reason behind it,
Just having the feel of it here
Consuming me, scaring me.
I am listening to a lullaby
Hoping to fade away my demons.
This isn't a choice for me.
It is least worse of everything,
An easy option for escape

[John the Baptist]

Sounds like the speaker has a diagnosis of depression. This is a terrible, and a terribly dangerous, disease. Indeed, it is not a choice; it is often genetic and triggered by stress. Good luck to you.
