Cocytus

The gray envelopes the horizon The rain brings permeating cold The bleak landscape of time Sorrow the weight that holds me low Every morning I awake is just another drop In the oceans of forever, drifting and listless Narrowly above death but far below life Echoes in darkness, emphasize finality The dreadful cold in my flesh and my bones Never seeing the sun, I will never be warm again The crushing weight of eternity, down forever In the gloom and fog, down amongst the lurkers
