You Will Never Know Life...

by Deaths Maiden   Jul 4, 2004


You don’t know what its like to live alone,
To wander in darkness and not know,
What it is you’re doing, what is that place you call home.

Have you known despair?
Do you know what it may be?
Have you known what its like to love and hate,
Do you even care?

As darkness continues to triumph over one’s soul,
Light is fading and the pain is unbearable,
But you cannot know this, you can only behold.

You do not know what its like to fight for what it is you believe in,
You do not know what its like to conjure courage,
If all your strength is spent from struggling for another chance,
When you try and defeat the demons within.

Do you know what its like to cry a river of tears,
And know that know one is around to wipe them away,
Have you ever had any one to whisper words of comfort to you?
And know that even the smallest words can ease your fears?

Do you know what it is like to live alone?
And wonder if anyone cares,
Do you know what its like to live in darkness every day,
And know that know one is truly there?

Do you know what it is like to live a dream?
Have you done so before?
Word has said its like your like inner desires come true,
That it is something of true beauty, is that what it really means?

And have you ever been haunted of painful memories,
Thoughts that brought you down,
Have you ever been hurt to not be able to imagine what its like to live your fantasies

Have you ever sat down to think why it is your really here?
Is there any point to all this pain?
What is it going to prove? Is it worth going through over again?

Until you have experienced all this and more,
Life is full of blasphemies,
Do not think you know life and know what it has in store,

So how can you judge if you have not experienced these things.
You obviously do not know life itself and the experiences they bring.

Do not say you know what these people are going through,
When really you don’t,
Don’t say that you’ll be there for them when really you won’t

Do not judge someone in deep and utter depression,
Until you have faced it yourself.
Life is not life until you have endured the dark side or the adversities that come with it, until you have done so then you have accomplished apart of life,
To fulfil life you must conquer your hardships.

And when that day comes, may it be your confession,
You can be lost and never found until you make that confession.
