Pawned Faith

by Ali Gardezi   Nov 23, 2007


An orphan child,
to me the world is cold..
truths untold..
cold lies...
i hide in darkness..
to warmth i'm blind..

vengence takes my name
sorrows scream my pain
darkness feeds my soul..
crawled up..
fear in my heart..
tears no longer flow..

trodden...
like a stone..
against the wall..
the alley of life
eyes cold..
watching them go by ..
saying goodbye..
my corners forbidden to cross by

walking in their gait..
through the alley of life
pawned my faith..
closed all gates..
perishing me..
leaving me with nothing ..
but my pawned faith
the devil awaits.

Oh Dark LoRD! they brought me down..
from light to darkness..
bathed me in the waters of hopes
yet to throw me back into sorrows
where i once dwelled..
