Haunted

Haunted by the ghost of memories past
Leaving the mind as fragile as glass
Rearranging every thought
Confused and left feeling distraught
Unable to let go and forget
Drowning in a sea of regret
Life slowly slips away
Day by day
Praying searching and hoping to find a way
To find a way to escape

This really describes the destructive power of depression. Its insidious nature to erode the mind slowly and efficiently. Using your past and thoughts against you. This really speaks to me on a personal level having suffered through its grip. Excellent work on this writing.
