From my past: a poem from a friend, and my reasons why.. |
I feel like I live in a long, long tunnel. I keep walking every day, miles and miles, but I never get to see the light. It's cold and lonely. Sad... and depressing. There is no laughter there. No joy, no such thing as happiness. Only angry, piercing words that leave a scar in my heart. Day by day, they jab at me, the pain un-explainable. I try to scream, but my mouth doesn't move. I try to call for help, but my feet are attached to the ground. Hopeless-ness fills the holes. Why did god give me this destiny? Why should he pain me? My head filled with questions, yet none of them answered. So lonely and hopeless, in my dark tunnel... Once she walked a long, long tunnel, Step after step, never losing her fight At times it was harsh and she begged to let go But I promised her she’d see the light Once she searched a long, long tunnel Tried every turn and turned every stone Sad, cold, feeling out on her own But I promised her she’s not alone Once she pained in a long, long tunnel Consumed by the words cut surreal Helpless to beg and begging for help But I promised her those scars would heal Once she cried in a long, long tunnel Heard naught but the fading of dreams Lost all the laughter and cursed the ignored But I promised her I’d hear her screams Once she asked in a long, long tunnel Which black sin had she commit? Her head pounding deep with the questions and lies But I promised her living was worth it Once she smiled in a long, long tunnel An act that lit up my sky Learnt that the others were nothing at all And she promised me she would soar high |
