Having cried myself dehydrated
I am deep in the river of tears of mine own grief
Painted and tainted with a monster pushing me down to drown
A beast that feasts on the seeds of mine own defeat
Feeding on my reeds of joy
It feels like a dream over painted
Yet killing like a reem
Feeding on my gullet
Choking me not to weep
Because deep I am in my latent casket
Shut into a pit with fungi that won't let me breathe outside
Deep I am into a haze with life feeling like a maze
Because rays to reach my gaze they fail
Rising up from behind my shadow
From a distance I heard the wailing of my soul
That was a skelp next to home
Realising a goblin had found a home away from its home
A bitter pill I was not willing to swallow
A solution was never found
And deep in death's dwelling still I am
