Out into the Woods

Sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think, I’m not going to make it, but you
laugh inside – remembering all the times you’ve felt that way.”
~Charles Bukowski

I have been
into the dark stage
but I am not sure if
it was depression.

For, depression means you
care for nothing and no one
in the world.

And I was hanging in there
because I could not stop
caring.

Now, you must know there is a
difference between caring and
chasing. Like there is a
difference between loving
and luring.

And I was there.
Into the dark room.
Into the dark lane.
Into the dark city.

Stuck trying to figure out
if I should pay heed
to my intuition or listen
to the many echoing
voice outside.
