#WritcoPoemPrompt24
Dark is the night,
Darker the soul,
Fathomless depths,
Stories untold...
In this unforgiving oblivion we toil,
finding our feet like seeds seeking fertile soil,
It's break or make it season,
better days are ahead be patient they said,
Disappointments quickly became a reason,
psychiatric wards filled with mentally ill patients strapped to beds,
Suicide is never a solution,
but at the moment,
How do you convince the hopeless having hope can be an option,
Dark is the Day,
Darker the mind,
Hopelessness looms,
Stories unfold,
