poem: i once knew what i wanted
By vrtualme | February 27, 2007

I once knew what I wanted
and for who it was I cared
but fate has opened doorways
and step through them I have dared
now the passage ways are hidden
and the future clouded smoke
because I chose to listen
when the voice inside me spoke
darkness scares the child
that within me use to sleep
for then I knew some silence
and now I have to weep
I’ve drowned inside an empty pool
then filled it with my tears
the task has taken moments
what I thought should take some years
all the crying I have done
takes me through both day and night
leaving my soul beaten down
without the will to fight
but my story will not end at this
I’m not allowed to set my spirit free
so I am forced to face my life
unlike judas and his tree
