I curse the darkness in my ignorance
I fight the pain in my pride
I abandon the fight in my self importance
I am lost in self pity’s relentless tide.
yet i am not one but two
there’s one in pain
but there’s one smiling too.
laughing at all my ego trippings
smiling gently at my misgivings.
I hope that someday i will understand
someday the veil will lift and the world will shift
A light in my eyes, a consolation in my sighs
my dreams will come true and the darkness lift.
And I will smile and know that this problem is a gift
