The Descent Into Darkness...... 8
My world is cold, my future's bare,
I'm getting old, I'm unaware.
I try to find, a way to be,
But I'm resigned, I cannot see.

"I feel no pain, I feel no shame,
I cannot gain, I have no aim.
My life is bare, I'm feeling numb,
I'm filled with air, I've lost my drum.

"My mind is blank, my life is white,
I cannot thank, I cannot fight.
My future's dead, my past is gone,
I've lost my head, my path is wrong.

"I can't escape, I can't move on,
My life is fake, it's all a con.
I try to find, a way to see,
But in my mind, there's only me.

"I walk in circles, round and round,
No way to scuttle, to solid ground.
My future's dark, my past is pain,
I'm feeling stark, I'm going insane.

"My world is void, it's growing thin,
My future's destroyed, it has no skin.
I cannot find, a way to start,
My thoughts are blind, my heart is part.

"The shadows grow, my thoughts are deep,
I cannot show, I cannot weep.
My life is cold, my soul is dim,
I feel no hold, I feel no whim.

"My life is bleak, my mind's in pain,
I'm at a peak, I'm going insane.
My future's near, my past is gone,
I'm filled with fear, my spirit's flown.

"My world is thin, my soul is bare,
I cannot win, there's no repair.
I'm all alone, I'm filled with dread,
My future's blown, I'm filled with dread.

"My world is dim, my thoughts are dull,
I cannot swim, I cannot pull.
My future's grim, my heart is still,
I cannot win, I'm growing ill.

"My days are gone, my nights are gray,
I cannot run, I cannot stay.
My world is bleak, my hope is dead,
I'm at the peak, I'm in my head.

"My heart is stone, my world is bleak,
I'm all alone, I cannot speak.
My days are through, my nights are spent,
My mind is blue, there's no content.

"Within the gloom, there's hope so small,
A tiny bloom, a rising call.
The spark is there, though hard to see,
It glimmers fair, it's meant for me.

"I grab the light, I hold it tight,
It fills my sight, my mind is bright.
My hope returns, my spirit grows,
My life re-burns, my future glows.

"The shadows flee, my mind is free,
I am now me, my soul is key.
My future's clear, I'll make it bright,
I have no fear, I have no plight.

"The path is clear, my heart is pure,
My future's near, my soul is sure.
I've learned my lesson, I've paid the price,
I'm now at rest, I'm filled with ice.
THE END ..... 🖤
