Wary Days Unfold Tonight

storm
Francis Danby, ‘The Deluge’
Wary days unfold tonight,
Discouraged by my current plight.
Self-doubt, my only friend concurs,
That hope just drowns in shallow shores.
Once full of promise and potential,
Now slave to all that’s existential.
Past one’s prime, there’s no respite.
Wary days unfold tonight.
