The Pond of Darkness
Swim in the pond of darkness,
Dive into a complicated world,
Try to breathe the air...
Smell the sorrow,
Beneath a dark world,
Where life doesn't exist,
Where souls are drenched with grief,
Where words are silent,
Eyes do not sleep,
Tears do not cry,
Hearts never share love,
Lies drown in lives,
Nothing shines, even
The sun gives darkness,
Skies fall apart
Oceans split into two,
Disguised with smiles,
While covered with invisible tears,
Betraying your own souls, for you're
Lost in a web of fear,
A life that changes an angel into a devil,
A life of sickness with no remedy,
A place with haunted hearts... Where
Souls never see "life,"
Prevented from light,
A world filled with dishonesty,
Souls drowning and dying
Tears pretending to smile, but crying,
One day, some one will have to face the truth,
Souls will rise to the top, and
The darkness will fade away....
