Shimmer of Light

There's a shimmer of light that shines through the darkness.

It gives me hope,

In a world so bleak.

I think it'll be better,

That the pain will leave.

But it doesn't,

It comes back worse.

That moment of torturous happiness,

It ends all too soon.

Leaving me with the numbness that I know too well.

I almost wish to have never felt that spark.

The shimmer of light,

That gave me false hope.

It was a cruel joke,

To be deceived into thinking there was more,

That I didn't always have to feel like this,

That I wouldn't forever be empty and alone.

But that's all it was,

A hoax to cause me more pain.

For I know it's true and always will be,

That I'm destined to live with this sorrow.
