the danger

THE DANGER IS THUS

Why will they not come,
The tears from my eyes?

Why can't I break free
Of this feeble disguise?

Curse after curse,
My mind is assaulted.

Brought to an end,
My feelings have halted.

To many times,
Have I been in pain,

Inside this shell,
my senses are slain.

The danger is not
This constant despair,

The danger is not
That I've had too much to bare,

The danger is not
These evils gone by,

The danger is thus,
I can no longer cry.
