Despondent

I continue to dream,

And follow the dim light of stars,
Convincing myself,

That everything will fall in place,
And there is still hope,

I tell myself,

Every dark cloud has a silver lining,

I have to be stronger, braver;

For there will be more rocks

Along this path,

I have to let it go,

For the melancholia is temporal,

But then so is bliss,

So is success,

So is fame,

You will never be content,
No matter the gain,
No matter the victory,

There is no end 

To the corporate ladder,
Because,

The sea only appears

To unite with the sky
At the horizon.
