In the catacombs of the mind, a darkness creeps
Whispers of despair echo during sleep
A constant struggle rages within the soul
Drowning in the depths of this dark hole
One moment, soaring high
On wings of euphoria, alive
Inevitably the pendulum swings
A crash into despair’s empty sting
The unforgiving sea, never free
Waves of anguish crash heavily
The world is suffocating, a heavy shroud
A struggle to break free from this cloud
Silence in the night,
Restless, questions and fright
Why endure this endless pain?
Why be shackled by this chain?
In the depths of despair
A sliver of hope, a flickering flare
Even in the darkest night
There is a glimmer of light
Fight this battle within
With every breath, begin
To conquer this darkness, the strife
And harness the joy, the beauty of life.
An honest effort after years of dabbling
