Heaps of Wretchedness

Numbness prevails over me, Masking me… sending me pangs of suppression Deadness tears its way inside of me, Consuming me… devouring me with yanks of oppression Darkness frowns upon me, Dragging me down…sending me scraps of sadness Gloominess molds me inside and out, Chasing after me…surrendering to my wretchedness Shadiness lurks above me and it wildly swarms, Murdering me…scarring me with my unbroken misery Murkiness blankets over us like troubled storms, Shaking us up…bribing me with heaps of boundless fury Edginess overrides me like a wraithlike form, Misleading me…sneering at my failures and agony Blurriness absorbs in this uncanny terrain…no sign of storm Still, I’m withering into sand, grinding into shards of tragedy
