Melancholic Fog


As I sit in the mindst of a raging storm

On seas of black bile that swirl and crash

It spins my mind into a dizzy haze

 

Inky waters extend for eternity

a neverending night threatens to consume me

I wish for stars to break through

For light to separate the layers of darkness

 

I wish for the dawn to breathe new life into me,

A cool breeze to blow away the apathetic haze,

As salty waves brim and threaten to spill over

Let there be a better day
