Analysis of Despair
As far as the eyes can see
That's where I'll ever be
Some days, nearing seem possible
Those days made you gullible.
The thought that you can near me
Chase me, catch me or hurt me;
Merely fuels my sustenance
Makes me keep far at distance.
For you, are "Despair"
With whom I'll never pair.
