Darkness surrounds me with loneliness
and I feel those stark echoes within
tenebrous demons fluttering like bats
in every corner of my soul.
There is a ringing within my ears
and I can feel my heart sinking
The gloom of depression in my sun
as I walk in a laconic state
unable to see any kind of joy.
So despondent I cannot cry.

I like lines 8 and 11 the most. Other than that, this is so dark but feels a bit cliche. A good outlet for your emotion though, I assume. You really seem to have what it takes though. Keep writing and thank you for the entry
