Confined to darkness yet drenched in light
unable to distinguish day from night
Walls caress with deep dispear
shadows dance and sway mid air
Sorrow deeper than a hallowed grave
my doubts and fears keeps me enslaved
Oh heart entombed in great dismay
afraid to journey another day
Oh wings of darkness Oh eyes of steel
what truth is hidden to me reveal
what secrets lies behind veiled eyes
no mortal man cannot disguise
Oh Gods immortal Gods of light
clear the path and grant me sight
teach these fingers I beg of thee
grant my wish that I may see.
Please tell me what you think

Look deep within and you will see
You have to let your mind break free
and split the bonds that hold despair
let go of that which ties you there
Gear up your heart put smile on face
And then rejoin the human race
With eyes anew step out your door
And leave behind what’s gone before
for Sorrow never was your friend
His lies are what distort and bend
Tho hearts entombed do not dismay
A new dawn calls for you today
A secret is exactly that
a lock to knock our psych-e back
For eyes deceive us every day
and lies deceive in their own way
BUT we need not be hurt or torn
by breach of trust or stay forlorn
And Gods immortal say to thee
Confine your hurt to history
For sight returns to those that see
To look beyond their misery
And when they do what they discover
His lie was just like any other
Your wish is granted heart now free
So go enjoy life’s mysteries
I just had to respond to your poem with my own, it was such a sweet yearning call of despair that I felt it needed answering. A beutiful poem by the way, it enraptured me completely.

GOD, I'VE MISSED YOU!!!
Now, let me start by saying that I do not remember your poetry being so dark...I hope you are not going through hard times. Ok, with that being said...I loved it!!! This type of poetry is right up my ally. I have a very sick mind (in case you have forgotten!) Not to mention the way it flowed was elegant, Im a sucker for dark rhymes. Awesome as always, sweetie...I can't wait to read more!

Awesome!
Avril, this was an enchanting poem.
Although draped in darkness and melancholy
it read like a bleak fairtale.
This write was loaded with imagination
and creativity. Diamond you still got it.
And I love it!

Gosh Darell, thank you; for a while there I almost thought I lost it. Creativity and imagination don't come to me as often as it should. I still yearn and desire to write but most time, I just don't have the time. I appreciate your honesty and thoughtfulness in commenting. Avril
