Lost
Darkness swallowed me whole
misery consumed my soul
without warning, without hesitation
telling me happiness is but a mere illusion
it was terrible, just as unbearable
that feeling of utter loneliness
to be on the brink of complete hopelessness
it was tormenting, to feel empty
and to continue walking on without certainty
not a single candle lit
to illuminate this dark, dark world so full of s**t
not a single candle radiating to light my way
so i may not be led astray
i feel the absence of your presence
boring down on me, when you're not here
my world just starts to crumble
reduced to nothing but rubble
Found
Desperate to see light again
and resolved to leave this gloomy den
i refused to remain squandered in self-pity
and started to move forward, away from this monstrosity
determined to leave it all behind me, to start anew
and look at life in a new view
i was tired of waiting for you to appear
tired of all the misery and the fear
until a realization hit me
what is lost cannot be found
until you seek for what is missing,
looking does not mean mourning for what is lost
it is acting , not waiting
optimism is the light in the drakness
the bright side in this dark world
you will find what you seek
if you open your eyes to what is good and meek
optimism is the light, the light is the Lord
follow the light, and the Lord will find you
