Honest Light of Darkness

rebellion_in_sanity

I am falling

Falling in a bottomless pit
A strange sensation 
Almost a sense of relief
 
There is no god to save me
There is no helping hand
All alone in this journey
To a strange land
 
Hoped for better days to come
Hoped for the end to my misery
Hoped and hoped with fervour
Hope turned out to be a treachery
 
Hope kept me alive
But it killed my soul
Saw my dreams getting slaughtered
Like flies in a desert storm
 
They said I had a purpose
And what purpose might that be?
The purpose of being a guinea pig
So God could measure my misery?
 
Now I see my life
In the honest light of darkness
As I rush closer to my End
I see the beauty in Her starkness

    Dark and painful this seems a harsh view of existence. Sadness is evoked in its reading. Nicely worded.

      Thank you very much. I feel glad that the poem was able to convey the pain.
