Darkest Hours

I've travelled down life's deepest, darkest holes Been through things where you can't be consoled Shed enough tears for a thousand lifetimes Spat enough anger which left me blind Vehemence and blame for everything else Made me feel I thought better in myself But I was deluded and I could not see I had to take responsibility for me I had to walk the existential path Had to find the spiritual light in the dark I had to find my way back to me And accept accountability For a life so harsh that knocked me down on my knees But rather now than having my head in my hands I gaze up and pay homage to creation And live in love.
