Shattered

This relentless agony is consuming me
I'm fading into oblivion, there's no escape;
Trapped in the web of solitude
Victim of my own fate.

The habit of life has been hindered
Feeling down and low; No words to say
Lonely hours causing madness
And every good thing is drifting away.

There is a growing numbness inside
I'm beginning to feel nothing anymore,
No more the same being
That I was once before.

Yet a faint glimmer of hope
Glows in this heart of mine,
A voice within slowly whispers
Though life is dark; It'll one day shine.
