A mournful sorrow
Bleeding from the soul
Cutting into the very depths
With whimpers of echoing pain
A shattered being
Struck by the harsh truth
Of merciless reality
Snatching the core of joy
What was once satisfaction
A complete balance within
And now torn out
Is a sliver of the heart
With a crippled soul
And a shattered hope
Only to be reduced
To a heap of sadness
