Holding Onto Hope

Running endlessly in a hallway of confusion,
Seeking answers fading into unconsciousness.

The sun smiles today, hailing down brightness,
But I'm drifting into a dark illusion.
A herd of guilt gallops into a field of thoughts,
I find myself in a world of eternal fog.

Wandering blindly in the thick mist,
Hoping to open my eyes and spot an answer before me...

Angels of destruction sing in a theatre of ruins,
A discordant melody drowning me in a tearful sea.
Following an aimless path, still I never cried,
Because I know one day, the skies will be truly fine.

Walking in a field of scattered thoughts,
I wondered, what have I done wrong?

Wandering hopelessly in a meaningless world,
I hope to see another story unfurl...

Angels of destruction flee a sleeping realm,
A terrible melody singing throughtout the day.
Following an aimless dream, it turns into hell,
But I still believe the brightest morning will shine again.

Lost in a cruel, enveloping destiny,
Littered with pieces of untruthful feelings.

Watching a hollow, pointless world grow before me,
Pitiful visions race before my eyes.
Though difficult times remain, I pray while crying,
One day, in the distance,
The brightest sun will shine...forever.

Wow. That was absolutely beautiful. Your metaphors were really great and I particularly admired this line:

"A herd of guilt gallops into a field of thoughts".

Very original. Quippie likey! :D
