The Death of Hope
Silent screams of agony
Fill this void and dismal hole,
Echoing its cries throughout
The cursed caverns of my soul.
Unseen tears of sorrow flow
From these melancholy eyes,
Drowning hopes I once possessed
To fulfill its own demise.
This decaying heart of pain
Withers like a blood-red rose.
Bound to fates of loneliness,
My heart soon to decompose.
