Sufferation

Suffering, a weight that bears down on me
A constant presence, a constant misery
It gnaws at my soul, a never-ending pain
Leaves me feeling empty, drained, insane

I try to escape it, to find some relief
But it follows me, a constant thief
Stealing my joy, my hope, my peace
Leaving me with only the agony to release

I try to hold on, to find some light
But the darkness consumes me, a suffocating fright
I scream and I cry, but no one hears
The suffering consumes me, it never clears

But even in the midst of this despair
I know that I must go on, I cannot tear
myself away from this journey called life
I'll keep fighting, through all this strife

For someday, somehow, I'll find my way
Out of this suffering, I'll break free one day
I'll rise up, stronger than before
And suffer no more.
