Bleak and Gray
Blinded by pain
blanketed by darkness
shrouded in misery
i stare into space
is there an eternity ?
engulfed in emptiness
bleakness consumes me
i reach out for deliverance
but the clutches of my demons
push me in deeper
lost in a maze
i feel life pulsating
in the tears which escape me
in the vapid heartbeat
in the agony flowing through me
i embrace it all
as i lie waiting for
life to seize me.
