Another day
Another hour
Production wanes
Thoughts sour
Empty hands
Cold as ice
Poor decisions
Paying the price
Morbid days
Never ending
Searching for
A new beginning
Dreaming big
Yet standing still
Almost out
Of drive and will

Early morning
Darkest night
No one here
To hold me tight
Always lonely
Nobody near
Forever alone
Is what I fear
And even god
Seems distant now
Even he
Has vanished somehow
And reality hits me
That this is it
I’m never getting out
Of this solitary pit

I’m failing
Falling hard
Into a funnel
Of finality
Fully aware
That fortitude
Is finally
Failing me
