Possession of Deep Depression

Grips me a strange worry
Life I am unable to carry

In heart there is a void
Prayer is by me employed

Saddest emotions shroud
Forming in my mind cloud

By lingering longer and longer
It stops me becoming stronger

Often eyes shed blood tears
Have vanished all my cheers

Solace is not at all arriving
Only gloom, mind is deriving

No escape rout to save
For anxiety I am a slave

If my mind I express
None is there to caress

Those whom I love
Are not with me now

None to care and cure
God alone must assure

Life sadly goes on
My hope is gone

Why was I born?
Why am I on thorn?

Everything appears damn strange
Will end come for an exchange?
