Black Hole

It's the toughest hole to get out of So shallow yet endlessly deep A bottomless pit easily in arms reach Of the friends and family I keep Once I've fallen it's so hard to get out At ground level in a darkening hole No damage done, there's no real pain Yet it hurts to the core of my soul There's no real reason to be down Taken over by senseless sorrow Silly little things recycled in my mind I just want it to be tomorrow But I dread the night, the possible vision Confusion of doom I might see A barrier between happiness Often blocks the path for me So hard to think of a better life When my future is lost in the past Doing my best so it won't consume me So hard not knowing how long it will last There's no real reason to be down Taken over by senseless sorrow Silly little things recycled in my mind I just want it to be tomorrow Still I'll face the sadness with an open mind Giving my all I'll continue to do I'll look at the world and all the good it has Keep pushing until I break through I'll see the peace and happiness The calm that once filled my soul I'll climb the walls hand over thought Until I've escaped depressions dark hole
