It merely starts out as a few days,
which silently turns into weeks.
Unknowingly followed by months,
thus occasionally turning into years.
Without a clue, the time slips by.
Periods of self doubt wondering
why am I not good enough,
and self loathing,
hating the person inside.
Utter worthlessness surrounds the mentally.
Can’t even look into a mirror because
the image staring back is one of shame.
Alone.
No one to available to share feelings, thoughts, or meaningless conversation.
A slow, downward spiral into the world of depression.
Not knowing when or if a snap out and return to normalcy will occur.
Just let the emptiness fade.
