Thank you for reading my poetry!
And there had been dark days and therefore dark inspiration, that’s for sure. And make no mistake, walking those days was challenging as hell, but in my opinion, from my own experience, anyone on that path must never give up and always must “wait for an answer” to come in and help through, because it will, loud and clear, that’s for sure too.
I have learned that human life, everybody’s, is the sum of triumphs and defeats, and I offer the writing of this note, twenty-five years after writing my poem in the winter of 1999, as undisputable proof of it.
FROM THE DARKNESS
There was a time, I still remember,
when yesterday didn’t count,
just today, perhaps tomorrow,
but the past? It’s not about.
But it’s been years since, and now,
only yesterday shines throughout,
no more today, forget tomorrow,
just my memories linger around.
And painful thoughts obscure my mind,
they jam my brain into a madhouse,
sadly, outside, a bunch of people,
cannot get in to help me out.
So, I bear my share of pain,
always feeling so disgraced,
why just me? Because it’s me,
I don’t see anyone else.
Then I wonder why, when, how,
I ended up in such chaos,
hope an answer’s coming loud,
before I die inside and out.
