The Dark

It all felt like a nightmare.

One day, I had these friends around me,

the next day, loneliness swallowed me whole.

From insecurity,

I took a bold step into low self-confidence.

As that wasn't enough,

I took a massive leap into depression.

I kept falling deeper 

and made a final stop at the phase of loneliness.

With no love around me,

darkness became my best friend.

It's been a year now

and I finally want to rise from this dark hole I threw myself into.

I am ready to love myself and my body.

I am more than prepared to put myself first.

I am finally ready to face the world and let go of the dark aura surrounding me.

I want to face the light.
