I come up out of this place both here and now.
I fall on my knees and my head I do bow.
I think about life and the magic that it does hold.
I think about death and destruction from the bold.
From Heaven to Hell and anywhere in between
The dust of our lives make us ever so unclean.
From dust to dust is what I have heard them say.
What about from love to light, I walk that way.
Listening to words spoken down upon my heart.
As much as I try from them I can never ever part.
Maybe they are fruitless but I think I will know.
But I am wrong for I know not where to go.
My life goes on but who really even does care?
Thoughts of hate into my soul they do tear.
Where am I now and where will I ever be?
I just want to be loved again, can't you see?
I once was lost but wait, alas I still am so.
I walk in the darkness of life and I know not where to go.
I eat of the sacred fruits of my disheveled life.
They bring me momentary happiness but eternal strife.
To think that I was brought up to know what is right and wrong.
But now I am weak where as I used to be so strong.
What do I care about in these days of my youth?
Just what I am told, eye for eye and tooth for tooth.
I'll get mine and when I'm done then you get yours.
I am moving on in life, but through the wrong set of doors.
I need to be set on the straight path please once again.
Because then once I am there I will feel no more pain.
Death and destruction they follow me close behind.
"From dust to dust" keeps echoing in the back of my mind.
What will I do now that I know that I am wrong?
Is there still hope left or has it been way to long?
Where to go and what to do these things I ask of you.
Because in my life right now, I know not what to do.

Lukeyd,
this is a very deep poem with lots of hurt leaking through. Hang in there, *HuGS

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown
