Shades of cold

Have you ever felt like a desert
All dried up, nothing left in you.
Not a sight of water anywhere, Nor a cool shade of anything.
So dry, that the cactus seen miles away gives you more hope than rationality permits.
Even the scorching sun unable to extract more from you.
So drained and weary, that living seems like a curse?


Have you ever felt like a rock on the ocean floor
Drowning and drowning, Ever eroding
The mere thought of surface seems like a fairytale
The continuous battle to keep together weakening your heart
the darkness of crashing waves, taking away every hope
No will, no dream, nor a thought


Have you ever felt heartbroken
be it a mother's, friend's or a lover's
Surrounded by darkness
Never leaving, never forgetting
Engulfed by the sadness, the wicked coldness.
