Her world has turned pitch-dark

She cannot find the path to the future

Her season stalls in freezing winter

She wants a dead-like hibernation

Her thoughts are trapped in misery

Time becomes unbearable

Life is meaningless to her

She only thinks of escape 

Pills she takes bring no light 

They offer a quick jolt to her brain 

To put her thoughts back together

It’s possible she will then break free

From her own inner prison
