My eyes have been replaced

My eyes have been replaced,
I cannot see anymore,
I cannot be anymore,
I see the world with the depression’s eyes,
Two bottomless holes on my face,
Sucking in all the bad,
Not letting in the good,
I don’t know where the happiness in the world went,
It used to be there now it is gone,
As I walk though the halls I search for it,
Searching for happiness that everyone else seems to have,
Reaching for it,
But it flies away as soon as I’m about to reach it,
Then the sadness swallows me,
Takes me over,
Dragging me,
Yanking me apart,
Until I am destroyed,
All I was doing was looking for happiness,
