No Air To Breath
In darkness deep, where shadows creep,
I find myself, lost and weak.
No air to breathe, no light to see,
A suffocating world surrounding me.
In barren lands, where hope has died,
Hopeless tears within me reside.
No air to breathe, no solace near,
Just whispers of sorrow so deafeningly clear.
Silent screams echo in the night,
Lost in a void, devoid of sight.
No air to breathe, no escape found,
A drowning soul forever bound.
Abyssal depths consume my soul,
Seeping sadness taking its toll.
No air to breathe, no respite in sight,
A soul struggling, losing the fight.
But through the chaos, a flicker ignites,
A glimpse of hope amidst the darkest of nights.
A ray of light, piercing the despair,
A promise of restoration, my soul to repair.
No longer suffocating, a gasp I take,
Revitalized, my spirit shall awake.
With every breath, life's sweetness I receive,
No air to breathe, but now, I truly believe.
For in the depths, where shadows lie,
There exists a strength that cannot die.
No air to breathe, yet I shall go on,
Embracing the darkness, until the light is dawned.
