By Les Henson.
Life is so hard and difficult
no bed of rose petals
rather one of piercing thorns
hurting deep within
penetrating the heart
and deadening the soul.
Why is it so?
I feel the pain
I hear the darkness
that burns so deep
within my soul
without a hope
a dim longing for escape.
It would be so easy
to end it all
to take the not so easy way out
leaving hurt and pain
for those left behind.
Where is hope?
There is no light
and, yet a glimmer
far away in distant lands.
