Brutal Light

I am in the womb of sadness...
 Surrounded by tragedy....
 By Infinity...
 Coldness suddenly embraces me,
 Like a cold blanket in the cloudy night...
 Like a stiff drink... 
 Like the brutal, morning light...
 I fly aimlessly like a battered kite...
 Looking down on myself from the great above...
 Hanging from my heart from rusty chains of love...
 Hanging on to the desperate night...
 Dreading the inevitable, brutal light...

Wonderful verses and meditation on our life and spiritual aim.It may sound like a game in Paul Gogain`painting> Where we come from, and where do we go?
