The Black is a state of Nothingness,
It blocks out all the Happiness.

Embrace it and nothing can get to you.
Live it and there's nothing THEY can do.

So breathe it in and fill your lungs,
There's no more going back.
Rest your head and clear your mind,
And give in to The Black!

I wrote this when I was severly depressed. Basically, this was how I lived my life during that period and about 6 months afterward.
