A short poem for Creative Writing!

Despair



Despair is. . .

    Slow,

      Creeping,

        Crawling,

          Unrelenting.



Losing your ability to. . .

    Think,

      Talk,

        Act,

            Be.



There is no. . .

      Hope,

          Truth,

          Faith,

            Belief,

In anything.



Makes you. . .

    Never want to wake,

    Never want to live.



Takes

    Your freedom,



Consumes your

    reality.



Becomes your

    LIFE.
