Melancholy unfolded

The dark shadow creeps over me,
and tries to engulf me,
as much as i succumb,
as much as i give in.

I am submerged in thoughts,
of nothing in particular.
I feel that all the humans around,
are aware of all the thoughts inside me.

And that makes me,
feel even more burdened.
And that makes me,
feel even more fearful.

I am full of self-doubt,
getting deep into the dark well.
Lost complete self-confidence,
getting always in the wrong.

O Lord, help me get out of darkness,
Show me the thin ray of light,
I can hence find my way out,
beating the shadow of melancholy.
