Death of a loved one
The Vortex

Where do I belong?
Where do I fit in?
I feel like I'm in a vortex
going down, down.

Words flashing in front of me,
depression filling me up.
The vortex pulling me
down, down.

Sadness and loneliness,
so many tears, so much pain.

Down, down.

Lost, afraid and empty
down, down.

Death of a loved one.
The one who meant everything,
shared everything
was everything.

Down, down.

Where is the light?
where is my life?
The vortex pulling me
down, down.
