Sadness

sadness through the eyes of a victim

A touch of grey is prominent in every colour that surrounds
my restless existence,my defenceless ground
a static mist rests over every trace of vibrance,every ray of light
draining the last drops of meaning from this confusion called life

dreams have relinquished,unheard and untold
the heart has parted with it's dear one,hope
sadness has dressed everything in a monotonic ensemble
devoid of mirth,a hearty laugh,the ability to awe in wonder

this world has been reduced to a barren ground
My jaded existence has ceased to care for everything profound
The desire for death is more common than the wish to be immortal
for what is the significance of the latter when all seems lost

Crying souls are alas silent,for no one paid them heed
The sound of laughter can now be heard far and near
The horrendous hollow laugh is worse than the most macabre cry
For it signifies that nothing can escape the melancholy that surrounds you and I
