Pitch Black

Disappointment is the worst of the lot-

It's like being stuck in a plot.

All that surround you is the dark,

Disappointment always leaves its mark.

There's silence, there's no sound,

In complete sadness you have drowned.

Somebody has thrown a poisoned dart,

Smack in the middle of my heart.

It felt like the bottom of hell,

I had almost given up, well...

Happiness was ne'er on terms with me,

Disappointment was the one I could see.

All my hope was down and dead,

Once upon a time happiness had said:

'I felt that we will soon be parted,

I knew it the very day it started.'

Eyes are the source of perennial rivers

Flowing down my cheeks giving me shivers.

There's no anger, there's no rage,

Only loneliness like a silent sage.

Here's my heart and there's my brain;

Both are empty but full of pain.

I wish I had some hope-

All the problems which could cope.

Take off the blindfold, see the light;

Ward off the darkness, end the fight.

Many are stuck in the darkness yet,

As dark as it can, it will get-

But spread your wings, ready to fly,

'Cause when you're out, you'll rule the sky!
