I feel down.
There's no way around
this feeling of being down.
No way up or sideways even.
Just descending into darkness
with darkness all around.
"Oh it's all so hopeless."
Although, I do feel up sometimes.
I get a grip and hoist
myself up from the darkness.
But I often slip, lose my grip
and begin to plummet back,
grabbing a hold before I'm consumed
once more.
I smile and laugh,
"Just a minor setback",
Ever climbing.
Up.

I feel down.
There's no way around
this feeling of being down.
No way up or sideways even.
Just descending into darkness
with darkness all around.
"Oh it's all so hopeless."
Although, I do feel up sometimes.
I get a grip and hoist
myself up from the darkness.
But I often slip, lose my grip
and begin to plummet back,
grabbing a hold before I'm consumed
once more.
I smile and laugh,
"Just a minor setback",
Ever climbing.
Up.
