The Pits

I'm stuck in a hole and cannot shout To ask for help to get me out Out of this hole of deep despair I feel no pressure while I'm stuck in there I feel a peace when I am on my own My thoughts belong to me alone The walls surround me like a glove The hole does not allow thoughts of hate or love Trying not to think at all In the darkness of this pitch-black wall I think that in this hole I'll stay Until all troubles fade away
