Poetry: The Darkness

by Liam

Consider despair darkness and defeat

How each gets here is unique

What a decrepit house they keep

Truth is this, here we are subjugated by a lie

A lie so perfidiously untrue

It’s needle pierces through the eye

Blinding binding chastising, why

Open the gateway with forgiveness

Filling this dark house in light

Throw open the windows with Gratefulness

Sharing thanks for life

Take your freedom in its

singing

The larks joy is in its flight.
