Without Hope

searching the depths of my my mind

for a word that can define

this emotion that’s taken everything away

It’s peculiar, and I’ve seem to haven fallen in love with the fact

That ill never get what it’s taken away back.

Searching, searching

Till only one word seems to fit

I don’t even know if it exists

Hopelessness

Is that the word for the haunting emptiness that keeps me up at night?

I don’t like it, something scary hides behind it

It feels as if it will consume me whole

Taking away myself as I’ve come to know
