Sometimes the circumstances are such
That you just feel as if you are buried
In the darkness, a person is being kept
With no hope as ahead is only death, lingering
Some sort of hope and some sort of light a person is searching
In hope of being free from this mess because the person is stuck
Then, he tries to remember the ones he loves
As very little time he has left with him
Tries to just hope, even when no hope is really present
Slowly, he says his last prayers
He is not dead as yet, shuts the eyes since the reality is too harsh to be faced
The difficulty to survive is increasing and appears that even the last hope is gone
Time has almost run out, now even death is being accepted, that is the only option which remains.
