The Past

Looking back at a narrow past
A disastrous place with no new beginning or fantastic ending,
Cast into a place of darkness and shadow, with demonic persons,
Some laughed, some giggled in mockery, while others keep pretending,
Tormented for months, 
Vision searching for a new place to enter,
Mine pleading in innocence to escape
Agony with distraught an pain combine,
Non-stop, 
Until one special day it came to an end,
A Fighting battle deserving freedom and victory
No more sorrow and misery,
a wicked place left behind in mystery.
