I'm sitting here alone in the gloom
But I have yet to decipher whether it be my room or my mood.
However, I can pinpoint one emotion
An overwhelming disappointment has settled in the pit of my stomach.
It could just be because my beautiful day at the sunny beach,
an oasis of laughter and fun,
Has ended.
Or,
It could be disappointment in the occurrences around me.
Be it around the world or in my own
backyard.
Because this summer has seen much tragedy.
With this tragedy comes anger and frustration,
but also,
a feeling of helplessness has engulfed many.
Those directly involved and bystanders watching it on biased
news channels.
