The dark despair has me in its grips.
Sadness overwhelms me.
The light of hope flickers out.
I close my eyes, and count to ten,
but the moment hasn’t passed.
It won’t be letting go tonight.
So much pain, so little hope.
I fear I’ve ruined myself.
I built walls of anger,
and a moat of mistrust.
Those who would help may drown.
I wish they would abandon me.
Just leave me to die.
I’m tired of being angry.
I’m tired of being sad.
I’m tired of guilt and regret.
Of a body that hurts,
and a mind that hurts more.
I am no more than a bitter burden.
