These people you took in
The damage you sustain
From starting over again

The long dive down
To the place you call home
To stop and lick
The wounds to the bone

Your recovery
A notion that's lost
In the neverending
Burdens and costs

Of the drawn out battle
The constant influx
The things that consume you
Distasteful reflux

Drowning in sorrow
And choking on spite
Keep struggling for
What'd make it right

Finding nothing but nothing
Trying not to give up
Useless positive spin
On this empty cup

Despair.

It definately suits the title!
I think you've captured despair and then some.
