Black holes exist, it is true
You feel them, when sadness engulfs you
When profound depression sucks you in
All you can sense is the darkness within
There’s that black hole within your soul
Sucking in your light, swallowing you whole
To the edge of the black hole of depression
You try to swim, but the force of gravitation
Pulls you back in, your escape routes are blocked
Time comes to a standstill, you feel locked
Inside the deepest darkest recess of your mind
It is a black hole, no help you can find…

I did escape from that deep dark place
I returned to the present time and space
Therapy dragged me out of the black hole
Filled the massive void in my soul..
There was a latent spark within me
That radiated light for the world to see
