A Cry For Help

I am slowly fading away
Without a plight 
Without a ray
Buried under at night...
Even during the day

My shoulders sore and tight,
Hardly a breath to pray
My hands reaching for light...
No help coming this way

How long may I might
Feel a sorrow but stay
Wishing that my sight
Would be but a child's play

Rising new and bright
As the morning obey
And the sun takes a bite
Fulfilling its relay
