Down, down, down

Down into the depths I sink

Where blue despair my soul does drink

The weight of life, a heavy toll

Leaves me feeling depressed and old

Sadness wraps around me like a shroud

A cloak of darkness that I cannot outgrow

I’m lost in the void, alone and blue

A tiny speck of sorrow, without a clue

In this dark and endless night

I’m consumed by the swirl of my plight

The whirlpool of emotions sucks me in

And I’m powerless to resist the spin

The world outside seems far away

A distant hum of noise that fades to Gray

I’m trapped in this vortex, lost and blue

Adrift in a sea of sadness anew

Down, down, down I fall into the dark

Where shadows dance and my heart is stark

No light to guide me through the night

Just the swirl of sorrow, a constant fight
