The Light (Part 2) Poem by Daved Tril

Today I can't see past the dark,
locked away in it's cold embrace,
a lifeless vision of what I once was,
unable to push past this overcast,
that's drowning me oh so sweetly.

I'm bound so tightly it's soaking in the pain,
the tears,
my fears.

I can no longer see the smiles in the light,
i can no longer feel the calming touch,
just again I've sank and the surface is too far away to care,
just forgotten and failing once more,
and there are no hands to untie this pain,
tightly bounded in this darkened dream,
only more so craving the light.

What happened to your little boy?

This relation has become stained
with every last emotion I have,
every word I've ever spoken has now embedded itself within the noise
and once again it takes control.

There's no hope provided when I'm being blinded by this,
no words,
just the noise
and the blackened shawls are at my window again,
the faceless fear of my confusion is here to haunt me again,
I can no longer breath.

As for today i can't see past the dark,
locked away in it's cold embrace,
a lifeless vision of what I once was,
unable to push past the overcast,
that's drowned me.
