Light

How far is that LIGHT
                                                    To come across
                                                    and direct my path towards the Right
                                                    Fertile energy of Hostile Land
                                                    Exhibiting force towards this Mortal Man
                                                   Walkways and corridors
                                                   Blocked by the darkness
                                                   Hard to see what I have to understand
                                                  Dirt
                                                  Ivories
                                                  Crumbling Canyons and Ghost towns
                                                  Highways without signposts
                                                  Maps without a clear cut direction
                                                 They shine for Some with Pulsation
                                                 I am stumbling along
                                                 Blindfolded in my circumstances
                                           Trying to view this World in between unfriendly Shadows
                                                Who am I,surrounded by the Morrow 
                                                 Condensed within a Prisoner's jail cell
                                                  Months,
                                                  Days,
                                                  Minutes,
                                                  Seconds,
                                                 Disciplined Unkindly by the Stroke of Father's Time
                                                 Why is there no light of Freedom upon my Sight
                                                 God,don't you Deny
                                                 This is,after all..just a small ordinary Guy
                                                 Mother in Heaven
                                                 Father of the Universe
                                             Show me the way from the abyss of Personal Curse
                                               And I am done
                                              For Now
