Despair

Im drowning in my own remourse
my life changed it went completely off course
shattered dreams of empty times
its dragging me so far down I feel blind.

The sun has gone
my light is grey
im just hoping my sun will return
and lighten these tormenting days.

Im normally strong and brave
I gave, I gave, I gave
my light is shade
im not strong and brave
my light is gone
someone please rescue me
and rebuild my soul strong and brave.

Good to meet you you, Gareth. I wish I could rescue you, but the Buddha says not to take on another's karma. Friend, I have enough of my own to account for. Keep writing. You may just rescue yourself. Love, daver
