life

javier castillo

The moon dips down and the world
forever casted in this lake of darkness.
No place of shining light
to guide me through the treacherous maze
of death, sadness, sorrow, and pain.

In this life,
I stand all alone,
only imagining to have a light.
I'll watch the devastation I have brought;
watch all of the people suffer
in agony just like mine,

I would take their pain.
The sun forgot to take it's reign
and the moon weeps,
starts its twinkling tears.

Perhaps I wasn't meant to
simply be here at all.
The way I cause destruction where I stand...
I must only be no more than a burden.
This realm of eternal night
takes hold of this twisted, tainted
soul of mine.

Please forgive me
For what I have done
and what is only on my path
I'm sorry I'm here;
I'm so sorry I was born
