All I know is Grief

Hamzaa Chaba

Grief
Bleak and dreary
I’m bored and weary
Unhappiness, and misery
Trapped in a live room
It’s breathing, it’s eating me

I’m surrounded
I’m bleeding, Boredom is killing me
I’m tired and wounded
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
I’m starving, I cry and weep

The pills are not helping, the rope is not tight
The blade is calling, I can’t see the light
The darkness and emptiness overwhelmed me
The prayers and believes are not saving me

Hopeless, helpless, I’m alone
I’m sick of this loneliness, I’m so alone
Painful life, that’s my belief
Then you die, All I know is grief
