My Darkness Hours Poem by Sandile Kenneth Mahlangu

To my darkest times when my spirit had grown tired and weary; when hopelessness had filled my heart.

When all I wished was to hear the sound of death knocking on my door; for my existence to be erased on the face of earth forever more.

To the day I lost purpose, when my worth in this world was questioned; to the strength I lost and to the weakness that embraced my knees; to my eyes that lost sight of the purpose of why should I live!

Couldn't they just burry me, and wipe memories of me. Me oh' Lord, for I cannot hold my breath any longer. Even the clouds in the sky bare heaviness that numbs and anguish my Soul. Oh' God I plead my case.
