Anyone To Help

Some hide their inner glow
Deep within themselves
What evils torment them
They don’t even know

Life for them is a struggle
Time never flies 
It only plods away 
Eroding a psyche
That keeps hope at bay

It’s always winter in their mind
Summer and light
Never shines through
The cobwebs in their head
They cannot ever manoeuvre through

Desires are overwhelmed by anxiety
Hope trampled by despair
Caution and inertia leads the way 
They hug their gremlins
And keep them always near
