Misery

The call of misery rings loud and clear.
It sings its songs of blood and tears.
Why does misery always win?
Because ignorant humans all have sins.

Misery wins because it's smart.
It feeds on the weakness of the heart.
It tramples it, stomps it and rips it out.
Then sucks out the blood and leaves it without,
a single touch to a human soul.
Misery knows how to take control.
