Crestfallen

I cry a tear of hope but it is lost in helplessness
the darkness eats away at the very embers of my soul
for the deepest love i had has dissolved before my eyes
my sorrow is bleak, i beg for deliverance
Lord, in your mercy, hear my prayer
All emotion is consumed by an inner silence
all grief is unassuaged by disconsulate tears
i want for nothing, i live for nothing
i am waiting to die but i am afraid of dying
Lord, in your mercy, hear my prayer
Crestfallen emotion
wallowing in guilt
drowning for evermore
Falling deeper into fear
my inner self is now
a sleeper of stone
Help me
