How am I if ever to come to grips With this world I wished to be dismissed Like grey sky’s that fill the autumn days So does the emptiness resound within this hollowed space Never at all if ever does it turn around With the inevitable change it brings Trapped beneath the current as you begin to drown The hardest part is not the wading rather watching others in calm ahead Laughing at ease While slowly your suffocating What shame this has all become As you ruminate on past mistakes Validating your sorrow Justifying your distaste As you sink ever farther The blackness surrounds No more to fight against the current As slip farther down
