Doldrums

I’m so deep, so low,

The bottom it’s not, not yet,

But I’m in this ravishing hole,

A mine, no land mine, a pit,

So deep, the sun’s not coming,

A ray of light, no hope, no strength,

I don’t want to fight, for myself,

My smile has gone, withered away,

In the gloom of the past,

Long lost, as I’m scratching the surface,

Trying to find a hold, I’m hole-d,

There’s no path for me to follow,

And the will to make mine is gone,

I don’t wish for anything, leave aside want,

I don’t need a soul, not mine too,

The catacombs have engulfed me,

Eaten away at me, my life, my being,

I’m all but lost in this maze,

That’s how it’s like to be in the doldrums.
