Dark is the hour
when happiness tends to flee.
Leaving behind a gaping hole,
absorbing all the glee.
Dark clouds on horizon,
threatening thunder and gale.
Where does one gaze,
searching hope should prayers fail.
The fading light mocks you,
taunting with cynical smile.
Nightmares come to haunt you,
bewitching with their guile.
Dreams torn asunder,
your descent's painful, slow.
The gaping abyss beckons,
to deal the fatal blow.
It's claws grabbing at you,
rending you beyond repair.
Always warring blissful happiness,
is the omnipresent despair.
when happiness tends to flee.
Leaving behind a gaping hole,
absorbing all the glee.
Dark clouds on horizon,
threatening thunder and gale.
Where does one gaze,
searching hope should prayers fail.
The fading light mocks you,
taunting with cynical smile.
Nightmares come to haunt you,
bewitching with their guile.
Dreams torn asunder,
your descent's painful, slow.
The gaping abyss beckons,
to deal the fatal blow.
It's claws grabbing at you,
rending you beyond repair.
Always warring blissful happiness,
is the omnipresent despair.
