THE ABBYS AND THE ANCHOR

I was in a deep sleep, and my dream slipped away,

When focus faded, my days fell into disarray.

I don't want to wait until it’s too late,

For this to become my inevitable fate.

I’m searching for a way to save the day,

But can’t I see I'm in my own mental fray?

Am I plotting my own treason,

Trapped in a prison of my own reason?

Locked up in a cell of self-made despair,

Falling from a ship I can no longer steer.

Each choice seems like a step to the abyss,

A journey of missteps I can't dismiss.

Why can’t I reclaim my lost foundation,

And salvage what's left of my reputation?

Perhaps it's time to break these chains,

To confront the doubts and fears that remain.

I'll seek a path to restore what's been lost,

And find the strength, no matter the cost.

For even in the darkest of night,

There’s always hope to reignite.
