A confined compartment
Asphyxiating and chilly
Alien emotions, a lump
In the throat, choking.
No words, nor teardrops,
The walls come closer
To devour the soul.
Solitude and sorrow
Aching heart, we pine
But there will shine
With sun, a good morrow.

That’s beautiful. The darkness often soaks up where we are devoid of hopes, and the optimistic approach. I had a written a post, belonging to the exact tone of this poem, where in I Search For Solace..
Do well, keep writing. 🙂

Lovely..somehow it reminded me of an old hindi song that went “Raat bhar ka hai mehmaan andhera, kiske roke ruka hai savera…” 🙂
