Abandoning Hope Poem by Brian 'Peza' Perrins

Sleepless nights through shattered dreams
Dark inner thoughts where my mind screams

Forgotten youth where I should play
No refuge in sight, life in decay

The thoughts of love and a caring soul
Of family and friends, a voice to console

As days drag by, in mind I languish
Darkness arrives with a sense of anguish

Exposed to perdition and vulnerability
A world of grief and a body of fragility

Please hear my plea for sweet repose
To escape this fear which no one knows
