    Falling Into The Void

    Falling into the void of memories
    Whenever time never desists to stop
    Painful remembrances were cherished in vain
    Not far from troubles and knowledge
    While hopes were never taken for granted
    Loss and grief would become constant companions in dreams
    Lifeless awareness was a futile distress
    Expectations never lasted perpetually
    In a mournful illusion of despotic betrayal
    Stupor seized thoughts under weeping clouds of solitude
    The obstinate bitterness of doubts overwhelmed every naive enthusiasm
    Tainted was the consciousness of the imagination
    Only a silent decay would have amended all the forsaken desires
    Wonder subsided to indignation
    Dismay and contempt grieved at the loss of trust
    Shallow vanity buried every capability of logical reasoning
    Desires lost their grip over embedded prejudices
    The oppression of distressing impressions defeated the consciousness
    When the dark night extinguished every orientation of joy and sorrow
    Regret and fears would not weaken their deafening blares
    Until the eternal luminaries would have been concealed and their ethereal flames smothered
    An unfortunate fate of deception misled graceful longings and blisses
    Amidst a labyrinth of memories, time lasted relentlessly
    Sorrowful remembrances clung to forlorn misfortunes
    Fragile wishes entwined with impermanence
    A silent realm of slumber and an ephemeral mist of distress became tragic illusions
    A despotic betrayal and stupor reigned beneath weeping clouds of solitude
    Tainted imagination disintegrated forsaken desires
    Marvel was subdued by the grip of indignation in an echoing silence
    Dismay and honesty faded away as vanity prevailed in the certitude of fame
    Suspense darkened every contemplation, generating every fear
    Celestial luminaries vanished, and their ethereal flames ceased to flutter
    Mirrors of regret deceived longings and dreams, casting them into the void.
