Here in the darkness all alone
I wonder am I quite that strong
The abscence of happiness left me
writhing in confusion and agony
The joy of my existence is gone
pain and long suffering carry on
The wretched darkness creeps in
the core of my soul burns within
The light fades to darkness in a day
as the abscence succumbs me everyway

True, true and there's nothing you can do about these feelings when you have them, it takes counseling. One thing , you should separate 'longsuffering'
