Once More...Again

Once More...Again

Shadows devour me-
once more... again
like the turning of day to night
in this time of hungering twilight
I am lost,
               in fear
              in pain
              in questions unanswered

it hurts,
like old scars
that remember their birth
(the fire, and hot white agony)

now,

I can only try to hold my head up
and see a better tomorrow
through these tears stinging my eyes

Author notes

once more I am a comparative that is not enough

Please tell me what you think

Well written. I thing everyone can relate to the message here, I know I certainly can. If this is a reflection of current matters then I am sorry.

You are always able to bring so much emotion into a write and express it in such a universal way. I always find myself relating your words to my life.

Thank You, CaliOkie
