Pushing Through Darkness
Pushing through darkness, no footsteps of my own
Reaching out through nothingness, for I’ve always been alone
The setting is still, cool, empty, and completely error prone
But I don’t notice, since this is what, in my life I’ve known
Attempting to get to the other side, perhaps... perhaps intact
Somehow knowing that I won’t, for ability is what I’ve lacked
Unless with the stony darkness I make a secret pact
But against me the odds are defined unequally stacked
So I continue on this fruitless journey to nowhere
Understanding I will always the heavy blackness wear
Knowing that I won’t see a tiny light’s prickling anywhere
My being will feel the start of an ever widening tear
Pushing through the darkness, no promise, no hope
Knowing it is useless to attempt in the dark to grope
Acknowledging that I never had the facility to cope
Sliding suddenly down through shadows on a endless slope
To end up... nowhere
