The weight is heavy
Dark is the space
Ghosts of past demons
Haunt this place
The shadow calls out
To laugh and play
Be weary not to wonder
Or venture astray
Trapes through the clutter
Wallow in the sty
Know that the cause of this is purposeful
But still question why
When did this go wrong?
How did this get so bleak?
Who is this husk of a being
All tattered and weak?
Just a soul who has
Stepped off the trail
A moment of darkness
Just a thin veil
This setback is temporary
These feelings will fade
Once this traveler stands up
And steps out of the shade
