I didn't know we had a poetry section!

Ooo I always loved writing poems. So I’ll post one I wrote a while ago,

Struggle

I hoped for hopes sake
But failed again
My back will break under mistakes of no end

I messed up this chance
Unsure of who I was
Who am I now?
I am who I am because…why?

I die or fly
Upon my own strength there is no life
It is but unanswered mornings of numb reality
Insanity, for who is me?

I fall in darkness of unknowable doubts
Please will you help me?
I am lost without a hope
For hope built on hope is none at all
I tried it once and I did fall

Shine a light on my darken heart
Ignite something that grows onto more than a spark
I want to live
Show me how

In death I felt a warm embrace
In disgrace I felt one’s grace
And with that moment knew there was more than night
But what? I was blind without light

I fought to see
Blindness and numbness would not overtake me
Determined to find that warmth and grace that touched me
And in the light I regained my sight

I saw great joy of sorrow no more
My hope this Love did restore
I hoped in Grace and he loved me
Purpose was mine for Life made me free

His light I grasped to bring back to night with me
To shatter the death and insanity
To set those free from less than reality
And to give hope to those like me

Beautiful, man :slight_smile: Yeah, I suggested a Poetry section to Sonia a few days ago, and she and Alex got it started. :slight_smile:
