Black Out Poem by Jackson Olagunju

The darkness surrounds me
Like leaves on a tree
It's getting cold
Im all alone

My world is empty
All left is full of pain, sorrows and regrets
No sunshine to light my path
It's like a tunnel with no end

My heart crys for help
When will there be dawn?
When will i see the light?
My soul dies slowly

For how long must i cast my net?
When will this darkness turn to light?
With sores in my heart
I cry for help
