Eternal Darkness (C) 8-6-08 Poem by Zahir Kijani

Eternal Darkness (C) 8-6-08



Trapped in a dimension where Darkness overpowers light
Leaving a trail of sorrow, grief, and pure rage
Trying to figure out why this world carries everlasting night
And why I'm alone stuck and trapped in this cage

The Darkness protrudes the rest of the sources of living
Making life seem worthless and to proceed with life futile
Another day, another pain, and the cycle continues to be giving
And in the cabinet filled with hurt I opened a nasty case, a new file

In order to leave the depths of hades I must become a heartless being
And leave all my love for her right behind too
But she taught my eyes smell and my nose to practice seeing
And to forget the things she did for me I simply can't do

However there is another way I can escape this vortex but then people'll call me crazy
I just no for sure there has to be some better way.
They'll laugh at me talk about me and call me lazy
But it's all worth just to again see the light of day.

very good write. i can totally realate to this piece. at times we get warped in a pit of despair. the walls of the world start to close in on us and we are trapped, helpness, not knowing who to turn to. great job

A Very Talented Write... The Storyline Was Riveting, Each Verse Flowed Rhythmically, The Words A Delight To Read... Also, The Emotions Swirled Around Each Word... (Especially, The Part About Leaving Love, To Find Light) I Really Enjoyed It... Forgot to vote, but will go back and give it a big '10'... Keep 'Em Coming Kiddo... Poet Friend, MoonBee
