Darkness: My One, True Friend

Forever, have I been trapped

in the endless hole of darkness;

questioning those who subjugated me

to the pit of misery.

The longer I stay,

the more instensity my insanity grows.

Staring at the pitch blackness

broils the deep anger within.

I punched, kicked, shout

for any gleam of light to come to my fate.

Alas, it was all in vain

for light to come rein over my life.

When I dream,

I dream of me.

I imagine a palace of hapiness and comfort,

but when I wake,

I wake to sorrow.

My heart hollowed with despair and insecurity.

A light appears in a blink of an eye;

my mind fiddled with a tide of hope.

I trudge through the brink;

my optimism and my pessimism interlocked in combat.

Climbing out of the pit of misery,

I could see the light.

My nose filled with fresh air;

my ears tuned to the music of nature.

A figure appears before me;

A silhouette of a person.

Friend or foe,

I did not know.

Before I could understand,

I was casted back into the pit.

Falling and screaming, I questioned, "Why?"

The figure laughed and said, "Die!"

As I fell to the deep,

I curse the figure to suffer how I suffered.

I shield my eyes from the light,

and turned to the side,

from the bright flickering of hope.

A final thought crossed my mind

before my life runs from my body.

The darkness was always there for me;

the darkness was my one, true friend.
