Sorrow

Sadness takes its spell

Cocooned at home is where you'll find me.
Only hanging on by a thread.
No relief from what I'm feeling.
Sadness is a friend of mine.
Time slips past unnoticed.
Always in pain.
Not a care in the world, even for myself.
Tasks so simple yet so hard to do.

Sleep is the only escape, yet I'm still tired.
Overthinking moment after moment.
Reliving old memories.
Relief nowhere in sight.
Okay is how I'm doing if you ask.
What if things never get better?
