Definitions, Redefined

Angst when the relationship tanks Fear forfeiting all that you've held dear Uncertainty heavy fogs covering the destiny Regret losing out on your all-in bet Heartache turned out to be another flake False-Hope clinging on to the last bit of rope Future just a synonym of hope, a fancy nomenclature Lethargic tired, lifeless, and sick Sadness hand in hand with madness Motions forsaking the notions Grief caused by an emotional thief Annoyance unable to avoid their pre-emptive avoidance Struggle being stuck in an unpleasant, unbreakable bubble Pain unrelenting heart strain Tomorrow another day filled with sorrow Today everything is indistinct and gray The Past the one thing that never lasts Hell the place where we just fell

So glad you found it applicable! and glad I have someone out there with the same feels, it's comforting. Funny thing is, I'm usually an optimist, this poetry stuff, such good therapy. Hope you have a great rest of your day and thanks again for reaching out.
