This is my first time actually posting my random angsty poetry for people to see, so please, critique away. Tell me how I can improve. This may be kinda stereotypical poem about light and dark, but it
could be symbolim for
something See if you can guess.
Alone in the dark
No-one around
I reach for a light
That cannot be found
Trapped in a room
Made of faces of hate
That see me for who I am
And then turn away
To them I’m an outcast
A failure and a waste
While I try to please them
I invoke their rage
I’m then trapped in a cage
Where I can’t get out
Nothing can get in
And I start to doubt
Slowly those come
That try to help
But their false knowledge
Keeps them about
And then I see it
The light I so yearn
I push through the cage
And watch the dark burn
In the light I’m greeted
By pounces and hugs
And I can finally be myself
In this place I call home
Thanks for reading!
