Dawn & Dusk

A lament

So many fears
Of things I can’t control
How can I fight
A monster I do not know?

I don’t know its weaknesses
Where I can strike
I am caught out by its tactics
That overwhelm my mind

I want to live a life
Chasing after my dreams
I fear being trapped in this hell-hole
My future never seen

I have experienced pain
In my life for so long
All I want is the chance
To prove my doubts wrong

What is the purpose
The meaning of my life?
Am I destined to accomplish it
Or will the opportunity pass me by?

The pieces of my mind
Lie fractured inside
I need some hope
That there can be new life
