~ realm of despair

This is a short poem about Despair, as I think she is the most neglected of all the Endless. Always appreciate feedback. Beautiful Despair does not belong to me, so please don't sue. Enjoy!

~ realm of despair

give in, give up, lose heart, lose hope

can you feel it?

feel the cold pull at your heart, at your soul?

a hook tearing away other emotions

can you feel it?

welcome to the other side of the mirror

shadows, mist, silence

coldness chills you, saddens you

depresses you

stillness and silence, these

the companions of the lady

who knows you too well

do you recognise her

misery and anguish

can you feel it?

the slow inevitable exhaustion of spirit

can you end it?

no no no you cannot

that is part of the pain

part of the plan

part of the picture

give up, give in, lose heart, lose hope

you are hers now

do you not see?

how endlessly she watches you, regards you

she loves you

you are beautiful to her

she will fight for you

for she loves you

do you see her sometimes

in the mirror

a face staring sadly out

many call her ugly or evil

but they do not understand her

she is what she is

a personification of an emotion

a feeling within us brought to life

do you know her?

do you see her?
