Crestfallen

I cry a tear of hope, but it is lost in helplessness. The darkness eats away at the very embers of my soul. For the deepest love I had, had dissolved before my eyes. My sorrow is bleak, I beg for deliverance. Lord in your mercy, hear my prayer. All emotion is consumed by an inner silence. All grief is unassuaged by disconsulate tears. I want for nothing, I live for nothing. I am waiting to die, but I am afraid of dying. Lord in your mercy, hear my prayer. Crestfallen emotion. Wallowing in guilt, drowning for evermore. Falling deeper into fear. My inner self is now a sleeper of stone. Help me.
