All Consuming

A sadness that consumes your soul,

That never let you be whole.

You can feel the despair but never the reason,

It can happen any time, in any season.

You wish to know why it happens to you,

You want to unravel all that is true.

Your soul seeks something that's elusive,

It wants to reject everything that feels intrusive.

There is a secret hidden somewhere within,

There is a thirst that feels much like a sin.

You try to get rid of it, to shake it away,

To no avail, it's there to stay.

It feasts on your heart, then your mind,

There isn't a hope that you can find.

Amidst the chaos, that is your fate,

A hunger that you can't even dream to sate.

Soon, it will eat you alive,

Unless you find a way to survive.
