Intentional gloom embrace me,
Eternal silence chase me,
Feelings commence an inexorable race,
Zillion thoughts, faint images downpour with no pace.
People around another piece of furniture,
Sounds nothing but aggravating noises.
Talking to my inner self,
A failed attempt to find myself,
Recollecting the memories of the decayed past,
Those deceptive self-made promises,
Because only procrastination lasts.
The feelings eventually take over my heart,
I curl myself into a small ball,
My knees hugging my chest’s part.
The best thing melancholy does to me,
Is that it helps me mindlessly ignore the world,
While the excuse for my melancholy,
Is alike the afterlife mystery,
Something hysterical about this feeling,
Makes me want to freeze to this dolefulness,
And relive it over and over.
