Deep Dark

Deep Dark

by Dominick Garcia

A deep, everlasting depression

like a dark, never-ending night

It seems no dawn will break the spell

Of sadness and of utter fright


It slowly creeps in like a fog

Covering our joy and our dreams

Our ambitions and our spirit

Are slowly fading streams


The darkness slowly steals away 

Our hope, our love, our peace of mind

And all the plans we had in life 

Are slowly left behind


We search for hope and find none

We look for something to believe in

But nothing gives us the strength to go on

We are so worn and thin


We are lost within this sadness 

Our souls so dead and numb

We are stuck in this deep depression

Forever, until our days are done.
