Description Ouroboros


No single word portrays
this thing i feel inside.
I cannot find the world,
so in the dark i hide.

Alone in the night I watch.
Life passes me by.
My face reveals nothing,
but deep inside I cry.

What point is there to interact?
What point? What point indeed!
When others don't react to me
I'm not a flower, but a seed.

A single seed in a garden
full of flowers in full bloom.
Who would care to notice me,
or care that I am doomed?

Doomed to darkness, evil demons,
black spirits are amidst,
and it is I they feed on,
for I cannot resist.

They reveal their teeth and eat me whole
devouring me from sight.
No longer do I hide there
in the shade of night.

No longer do I sit there,
fearful, holding my breath.
No longer are my emotions hidden,
instead there's only death.

My loss of life, a tragedy
but a fate i perhaps deserve.
I too now become the night.
My soul has been preserved.

It's a vicious cycle;
an ouroboros if you please.
It first peers deep into your soul
and then it brings you to your knees.

Now it is I who feed on others,
those who I used to be.
Darkness soon consumes them too,
just like it did me.
