The veil of ostensible happiness raised And the bitter truth revealed With the heartless sound of the gavel A long overdue judgement pronounced Yet again bereft of purpose Imprisoned on an abandoned raft Shackled to the impregnable hopelessness Paralysed by an overdose of lethargy Petrified by the horror of calmness Drifting on the dark waters of boundless void Awaiting indefinitely for the predestined doom to come
