Black
Emotional pain hitting nerves so deep
with flinching force in places
so dark the sun’s might cannot
penetrate
Tears with frowns too sad, my own
reflection cries for me with intensity
too overwhelming for this world to
alleviate
Dreams of a love, so real with hopes so
False, the rising sun upon my eyes
brings another day, which water
runs freely from the portals of my
existence
Life with the will to live weak in a
world where life is so bleak with a
daily fight to liberate myself
from this tangled
web of sorrow
Enslaved within my mind the body
is rendered motionless and weak
with the only option to sleep and to
pray for a day where peace of
mind will stay.
