In a dark abyss

Unspoken without a voice;

A self-imposed prison...

Will, anyone understand

The heart is filled

With regret and indecision...

Bottled emotions robbing the spirit

With little chance of remission

Verbal debates invade the thinking...

Causing the mind no absolution;

Forgiveness is always an option

But does little for daily task...

And I always, always, have to ask

What was and why.... and can't I just die...

Life is a never-ending song,

Where peace and serenity

I search all the day long...

Within limits of imagination

Bringing about in any situation

Oh God, it brings such hesitation

Most-times it's just an impossible situation...
