It is so dark,
Where am I?

No where to run,
I'm a needle in a hay stack.

Where is my home?
Who is this person?

Will this Hell ever end?
Or will I die here?

What is left?
Why?

Daylight,
I can run.

Most of me died last night,
What is left?

i was reaaaly taken with this poem. i love the mysterious rhetorical take you had with this, i really enjoyed this one.

as long as we laugh out loud, laugh like we're mad. because this crazy, mixed up beauty is all that we have.

Thank you.  This was inspired after reading a poem about a very personal matter to me.
