There''s a hole in my life.


    Deep. Dark. Cold. Vast.


    Carved with feelings like a knife.


    Emotions fall in, disappearing fast.


    A beast, unholy, tenacious maw.


    Happiness dwindling by the day.


    A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.


    Deep into my heart it sinks it''s claw,


    hunger keeping my hope away.


    It''s evening now, it''s time to play,


    my friends, they all support me.


    I''m blinded by pain but they know the way


    out of this darkness, I finally see.


    Bit by bit the hole is filled


    laughter''s the beast''s opponent.


    The beast''s hunger is finally stilled,


    at least for this very moment.


    Tomorrow is another day,


    abyss is slowly growing.


    Happiness keeps it at bay,


    luckily the growth is slowing.
