Life As I See It

by Knanaki

i was feeling a little down when i wrote this. and i was told by a very close friend of mine that it had a very saiyuki feel to it...hope you like it.[poem]

Life sucks…

Pulled apart by circumstances

I stare helplessly at your fast fading form

Familiarities fade only to be replace by the uncertainties of the future

The cloud of doubt swallows me whole

Clawing at the emptiness about me

I see no end in sight

Without you by my side

I feel so lost

So unsure

So insecure

Losing my foothold on reality

I wish for solid ground beneath my feet

But all I see are the deserted streets

Standing alone in a vast nothingness

Then loneliness seeps into my soul

Alone and forgotten

My life in shambles about me

The world has been turned inside out

My life turned upside down

All by myself in this lonely town

But…

However bad things get

I cannot give in

I cannot give up

The world maybe lost to the darkness for all I care

My solitude will no longer cripple me

I shall draw my strength from things that do not fade

That do not fail

So even if I fall

The infallible will hold me up

It will be my solace

My crutch when my soul has been wounded

When my spirit crushed…

Os optimistic things are about me

I try to make myself believe all that I write

But I can't

Is anything ever infallible?

I think not

Does that mean that we are all doomed?

I think so

But does that mean we cannot hope?

No

I will survive cause hope never fails…

And through that we will draw strength

Because of that we will breathe

And we will live to see the sunrise again.
