Depths of Your Despair
All the angels have left thou
And thy soul is a crippled runner --
The winds blows you off course
And alll thy enemies rest only at the strongest force.
The children have nothing left but empty eyes
And you have nothing to offer but lonesome lies.
And the tears fall down your sullen cheeks
And happiness has no room to even take a peek.
Alone in this world, alone as always
And your despair is a never ending hallway.
You would kill for a moment of tranquility
But no one gives you any credibility.
Much too late to start anew
You're a soldier trying to pull through.
You are beyond empty, like a forgotten ghost
You are without anyone to be your host.
You wonder if anyone has the time of day to spare
To hear your cry out, to say a little prayer.
You ask God why this life is so unfair
As you scream out the depths of your despair.
