Absurdity
A boy fell in a deep well.
Wanted to climb back,
but slipped every time.
Thus he unwittingly made it his home
Wallowing in despair.
Composing plans to resurface.
Each and every iteration,
Is but a failure.
Stress and anxiety takes its toll.
Am I just not motivated enough?
Am I just not desperate enough?
As always.
Useless and helpless.
As time ebbs and flows,
his will weakens.
He will break soon enough.
A life of a tragic failure.
Hence, insanity kicks in.
Saying life has no meaning
to provide a sense of comfort.
Even so, the mind still races.
Albeit twisted.
What if I fill this place with my tears?
Will I float and reach the surface?
Everything goes blank.
On the green pastures.
Under the gentle ray of the sun.
A body was found.
Soaked and bereft of heat.
With a drop of water
trailing down his cheeks,
and a peaceful countenance.
