DREADNOUGHT

DREADNOUGHT

Dark legions are gathering

Rising from the depths

Embracing those that get too close

A power they have

Darkness shrouds them

Never ending fear

Oh what a fright

Unleashing its terror

Grabbing the innocence

Holding them in the grip of fear

Taking deep in the shadows

When I read this poem it makes me think about how depression can take a person into this kind of state of mind, fright, terror and darkness. I battled this demon once and was able to overcome.
