Goodbye Mr Darkness Poem by Lehlohonolo Selai

My name is pain
My life has been in vain
I've played the guitar to wait
I've killed minutes just to reign
And with the sound of my thoughts today
I have turned the world about
Searching for reality to take hold
I have deserted myself in the rain
As tears locked me behind pain
Mr Pain, today I have found my sound
Today I wield a weapon of choice
I ride the music to your death I swear
Goodbye Mr Darkness

Piles of thoughts tried in their way
Or perhaps did succeed in their minds
To push me further towards the edge
The tails in my head paddle me away
And much closer to the edge I know
Past and present fail to merge before my eyes
I fail at sound sleep today
For I see the pain I deemed dead.
I fail at peace in my tries
Or else why the constant visits from my one choice
One very rusty and old choice
Mr Darkness, I have had enough of your dungeon
I am finally quenched of all the tears and treachery
I!
