Heart Of Darkness Poem by James Greene

My heart is in darkness,
Each and every day.
All is so dreadful,
Nothing goes my way.

I've walked every valley,
Forged every stream.
I keep searching and searching,
But I never find my dream.

I've prayed to God,
Again and again.
But if He has ever heard me,
I cannot remember when.

God has forsaken me,
I will never know why.
Sitting here in loneliness,
No more reason to try.

Now God is my enemy,
To him I will not confide.
My spirit has cast him away,
I'll go to the other side.

Living in hopelessness,
Much despair and dread.
By this very night,
I shall be dead.

No more fighting,
Never again any fear.
I shall not go on,
Another day, month or year.

So to you and everyone,
I say goodbye and farewell
For my soul shall be black,
Soon Burning in hell.
