Life’s Sorrows 


When the dark reaches 

The night bleaches black 

And the eyes of the sad may rest 

Within the chest of the mothers love

But the many shall quiver as they expect 

Their deliver 

to decide 

What will come to them 

Soon they will meet the dark and be 

At rest 

On the grass looking for what can last 

But all you see is dark 

Like the bark of a burnt tree 


Deep in my mind

I lay on my back 

Thinking of nothing but black 

The thought seeped in my mind like 

Suicide 

I can’t take it anymore

Cut the pain away 

But you can’t escape 

I just break 

In a million pieces 

Shard by shard 

Cuts my heart 

My eyes  

So i just see 

Darkness

The eyes of the unwilling can't see past the wrong but the eyes of the willing will show wisdom and truth.
