The weather seemed to match my emotional fizzle It rained on from despondent grey sky Not even mustering a proper storm, rather a drab constant drizzle The sky was me and I was the sky, I couldn't be that guy,
Could I? He who waxed on ‘bout woe Yet about what had nothing to show I remain, yet the rain moved on, nothing more than a by-the-by
Sigh after sigh, I felt myself slip Deeper and deeper into my dip Yearning for something to excite Yet knowing not what came on as a fright
I am no longer the sky, rather the sea In constant consequence movement, with no will of its own Indeed, indeed, that guy is me The one so drear, who must atone for crimes uncommitted, all alone
A prisoner of fate I am now the ground Nothing to soothe me but a soul made of slate Now I must find a joy in this drear, to enjoy the ride, for are we not all hell-bound?
So, I wrote this a while back when I was in a depressive state. It lays out the sort of transitions in perspective I made when trying to cope. In the end, I came to a nihilistic sort of "might as well enjoy what I can" mentality.
