A heavy pall of gloom pervades my heart,

Filling me with hopelessness and pain.

Griefs that lurk in the depths like a shark;

Miseries spread on a wide terrain.


Tranquillity eludes me with no rest,

Nighmares making sleep an arduous task;

Wandering thoughts with nowhere to digest,

Jaded emotions —hurtling from stark.


Somnolence marks each sleepless day,

Rage towards myself for all I can't do;

Languishing hopes enwrapped in dismay,

Ebbing strength leaving me astray too.


I'm unable to discern when this ordeal began,

Time crawling away under dark clouds;

A labyrinthine path without end or plan,

Caught in its snare with no way out.


Oscillating between despair and hope,

A constant war raging within my head;

Battles unknown by anyone who could cope,

Piercing silence yet words not said.
