One of my rather emo poems when I was still sixteen. It was written on 8:46 PM eight years ago and has one erasure. I don’t know what misfortunate event caused this. But I remembered utilizing this poem as one of my Values Education homeworks when I was uninspired.

Piercing blackness embraced me.

Nothing seems right.

All the good that have been happening

Seemed to be from a bad cause.

Emptiness lay beyond the horizon.

Loneliness is consuming me.

All the bliss that I had

Have a karma boomerang in my life.

Hope in me has been sucked.

And my mind is a tangled web.

Nothing seems clear,

Everything is shattered, broken and of no value.

Yet, something out of the ordinary

Appears to be unfolding the uncertainty,

Wiping out the blackness

And putting me back on a pedestal.

Now, I know He is there,

Never betraying me.

Just giving me trials

To be replaced by triumphs in the end.

Here I am, struggling to go on.

I have passed

right through the misty blue fog.

And I know, I’m still alive.

    This reminds me a popular adage: when He closes a door, He opens a window.=D Our capacity to believe is one of the greatest things in life.
