Hope Lives on a Dead-End Street

I’ve been undressed… swam the river of depressed
Where waters are dark…murky depths of blue
Climbed gloomy mountains…that I can attest
At crest of bereaved…another mountain loomed
I’ve walked burning deserts…flames from my brain
Plagued by Siren’s call…wailing in mine ear
Had dismal dreams of doubt…echoes of pain
Oh! doleful nights…I’ve run on winds of fear
I live on yesterdays…dread tomorrow
Dine on wistful wine…gnaw morsels of woe
Inhaled trite clouds…dueled agents of sorrow
Stared moody at moon…fell asleep with Poe
One lone happy day…how I would thank it!
Shivering on low…wrapped in wet blanket
