Happy times never last

The world is a black hole of abyss,
my world used to be so bright and cheery,
but what has left me so disconsolate?
my smile used to be so infectious,
but now all is that left is just a feeling of dejection,
its like living life with half a heart; wishing to be dead,

how does one become so unhappy when life is just perfect,
a presence of darkness engulfed my happy thoughts,
and left me wallowing in the black,
the situation is so melancholic ; I'm drowning in my own sorrow,
I am something I once feared ; a living shadow,
which blends in the darkness and goes unseen,
when night befalls , the sunless atmosphere matches my mood,

Depressed, alone, unloved,
why do I feel this ?
I know it is untrue yet I feel so uncared for,
why is my mind playing tricks with me?
It's like suffering at the bottom of Tartarus,
that sunless abyss,
take me away cause I'd like to find happiness once more,

what is true happiness?
It is a feeling that is long gone,
how I yearn to remember,
Oh how I wish I was like the me who i knew before,
enlightened with happiness; illuminating a golden glow,
that glow is gone ; no trace of sparkle left in the eyes,
because happiness never lasts and no matter what we do,
delight can never stay eternally,
and we are left to sulk about the happy times that never lasted.
