Stalker

Everywhere I go
It goes
Everything I do it does

It is my constant shadow
It is my stalker
I can never run from it,
Hide from it
It always finds me

Nobody sees it
Nobody hears it
Nobody notices it
Only me

No matter what is wont go away
Nobody can stop it
Or kill it or lock it away
My stalker always gets out

It comes in any shape or form
It uses my problems against me
It hurts me but nobody can do anything
Only me, but its hard

You can’t physically fight it
Or tell when it will attack
It will happen when least expected

Only the people you would least expect,
Would have this stalker
I am one of these people
My stalker is,
Depression.

    I Understand

    Thsi is a lot like me, extremely relateable. And nobody else seems to help. And aside from that it is written excellently. I love it.

    Great !I like the symbolic language that you've used in here .The stalker is the depression itself .Something awful and terrible that could ruin our life.Everybody has it's own Stalker.That lurks in our darkest side waiting... waiting to kill us . I'm glad that you've discovered your stalker.Good imagery .

    Strong Content

    I've been stalked by depression also. It doesn't haunt me as badly as is seems to you. None-the-less. Most people wouldn't realize how terrible is to have this type of stalker. You're right it's very difficult to fight something you can't see or touch. It paints a picture.
