At the end of the road

No more words of hope, I lost, once and for all.

This day, the world stands still,
and the time stops before my eyes,
not even the slightest whisper

or a sound is heard,

Neither a flutter of wings

nor a slightly controlled sigh ,
is seems as if I am on a high,
But all the thoughts of a blissful life,
is shattered by a whim of mine,
and all the cruelties of the humankind,

The devious nature of a human heart,
has held me still with shock,
by the thought of the future,
where a heart is devious in nature.

I've seen enough,
I've suffered enough,
 all the consequences of being an adult
and can't take any more of the relentless battle,
where truth and just
and faith and trust,
 Always falls short of the unjust.

I just want to be here,
where this volatile world stands still,
the clock of lies is no longer ticking,
where you can't hear the nearest whisper of deceit,
 or the flapping wings of trickeries
 not even the falsifying sighs of pretend,

It is not a high that I have,
I am at the end of my journey,
and can't walk any more.

All this time, all this life,
I always met
Trickery with a smile,
Treachery with trust
Hatred with Love,
Betrayal with Faith,
All the while praying

for a better road ahead.

But now I see, it was a lie inside me,
as there is no more than this,
where the world is full of unpleasant things,
and there's no light at the end of the tunnel,
but just a dead end.

So Now I won't walk any more,
Nor have a reason to keep doing so,
I can't be here any more
I can't always be on the loosing side,
I now just want to end my life.
