Bubble Bubble

I close my eyes,
So I can't see
Anything in front of me.
The future is looking bleak,
I close my mouth
It's useless to speak,
The world feels like
A massive bubble,
Full of heartache,
Treachery and trouble.
We need strength
And togetherness,
So we may rid ourselves,
Of this awful mess,
To burst this bubble.
With a pin,
Spilling out,
All hate and sin.

It's a phase usually a wintry one. Think of the roses of spring, the blue of heaven. Be positive...look who's talking :)
