Dead is my hope,
Hatred alone is shown,
Said are hating words,
Blood may get extracted,
Ahead lie grave dangers,
Head I only with deep fear,
Bed gives me no sleep,
Bread is my life to devils,
Read by none is my heart,
Led by worries, I march,
Tread I with great anxiety,
Watershed i never face,
Red letter day, I don't have,
Wed I daily only tears,
Fed up, I am always,
Flood me only sorrows ?
