Decades drifting,

Disparate dreams,

Devotion diluted…?

Discomfiture…

Definitely deluded.

Desperation delivers distinctly daunting dilemmas!

Dissolution?

Divorce??

~

Devastation.

~

Distress directly dictates depths down depression dives…

Demoralizing despair deluges.

disappearing…

darkness…

dread…

desolation.

~

Dispensation?

Dear’s delicate deeds, demonstrations deal despondency deliverance,

Delightful, decadent daylight dawns!

    So happy that the last line negated all the negatives, and set one upon a road to hope. Really real words here.

    One of the few tautograms that I have read so far that don't just seem like a mess of scrabble words jotted down. Good job on delivering difficult emotions here.
