Living Dead

Living cursed 
For the light that was suppose to enter my eyes to allow me to see; faded
For the air that should have entered my lungs, betrayed me
Suppressed my heart squeezing it tightly 
For the heart that a must he had pumped to guide me
Gave up on me, giving me feelings to surrender
Soulless I have became condemned to live without it 
Results of the so-called murderous crime:-
I arrive home, no one to greet
I go to sleep, no one to kiss
I wonder questionably 
What did I do? 
Though I can’t explain it 
It feels so rough 
Though I can’t quite say it 
It fits in no words
What did I do...?
I ask again 
Claiming my innocence, I rest in sorrow
Speaking of sun, with none to light up my day 
Saying I’m sorry
                         But there’s no answer in forgiveness

So I rest, I rest again, with no hopes, with no light
With tears to dry on my pillow
With a kiss of goodnight 
Not to be given
So as for me..., I remain in silent sorrow

Wow! The poem is not what the name implies. The dark emotions that gave these words birth, captivated me.
