On Days Like This…

On Days Like This…

On days like this...

Depression is my constant companion

Wrapping its arms around my heart

Sinking its teeth into my soul

Because walking down the highway

I was tripped by an Aedi*

Broken by Efil*

Possessed by a Maerd*

Led through a bush

Still falling down the rabbit hole

It’s bottom is never known

This is what it feels like to be alone

(*read backwards)
