"...undramatic serious and sure"

Transcendental Sonnet #1175:
December Darkness

So much to remember
Too much to forget
So deep in December
Too deep in regret
To join in the festivities

Day is overpowered now as night
Advances I no longer see the dawn
So much darkness and too little light

I seek the sun and find it to be gone
Away and day is night no light for me
Eyes frozen shut by tears no longer see

Suicides born in moments like these
Are undramatic serious and sure
The mind as broken as the heart is pure
