When sadness strikes some salvos sequentially
My mood in abject hopelessness De-energized lies
Life’s pleasure is not worthwhile in their tries,
I cannot do a thing or eat or even cry!
My heart in anguish beats dys-rythmically
The pains of life are threatening my future awfully
The weeks are turning months, may be too years,
I live in despair, not knowing what to do, in fears.
The stage has come to seek the help of science
Asunder, blunted lies my conscience
May be, some drugs and counseling will make me right
Right now, I cannot see even a distant shimmer of light!
I know I’ve no control over this cascading mental slide
I know I cannot take life’s bumpy, rough roads or ride
I need to seek some urgent remedy or die
I stand upon the ledge of suicide’s abyss nigh!
