Misery....

This poem was written by me almost one and a half years ago. I was kind of a pessimist at that time. The first seven stanzas are of that period. I dunno why I composed such a poem. Anyway, the last two stanzas were added about like a some months ago. You can see the optimistic side of them.

I opened my eyes

To see the darkness around me,

I don't know why,

I've been feeling so lonely.

When I look back,

In my long lost life,

I see my mistakes,

Slashing my dreams like a knife.

Tears of blood oozing from my eyes,

Rolling down the cold hollow cheeks,

Muffled screams from beneath my heart,

Are reaching to their highest peaks.

I looked in the broken mirror,

And a strange face stared at me,

I spoke a few words,

And a small afraid voice escaped from me.

No friends anymore,

To share the joy,

No foes either,

Threatening to destroy.

Singing alone the tune of misery,

I walk alone on the road to nowhere,

Uncertainty gripping my soul,

Every thing's just become a nightmare.

Cursing myself for my saddened life,

I wish there was a reverse switch,

Luck has turned its back on me,

As if i has had some kind of glitch.

Somewhere inside me I just know,

I can lift my spirits and let them flow,

I can change every thing and begin from scratch,

It's the opportunities that I have to catch.

So people out there who still remember me,

Watch out coz I am going for a golden spree,

I am gonna rise and shine and show the world,

The bright side of me has just unfurled.
