Darkness Kishore Daswani
I am surrounded by darkness,
my heart throbbing as every second slips by,
faces appearing in flashes,
hands stretching, grabbing me towards my death..
I fight a merciless struggle,
waiting like a pitiful worm,
hoping that someone will come,
some hero, some savior, someone who cares,
someone who I will sing praises to until my dismay.
My prayers unheard, unanswered.
I sit fearful, cold, wounded and hungry calling out for help,
screaming through the dark void that envelops my very existence,
I lay, accepting death as my only savior,
knowing no one would care for a pitiful worm,
an outcast thrown like rotting meat to be ripped apart by stray dogs,
rupturing my flesh, drinking my blood,
slowly my life slips by, my hopes, my dreams...
my very existence.

"I can see where you were trying to get with this poem, but I didn't feel it very acutely. Not really enough... heart. Depth. A center or cause for this person's pain. Remember, just because it's a poem and not a story, doesn't mean it can't have a climax and meaning." -- Kimberly De Liz.
"feeling that nobody cares if you are dead or not. More importantly, I'd like to know whether or not YOU care! You seem to want to be rescued - you know only you can save yourself at the end of the day. I can relate with the "dark side" and your analogies but think you should hone it down for greater impact." -- Lou(ise) Friedman, Hoboken, NJ, USA.
"This poem was very insightful. I could feel your saddness and frustration. The words were extremely descriptive and captured my attention." -- Julie Fehrenbacher, Elwin, Illinois, United States.
"Very angst-laden. The emotion was there, directed toward the outside world, craving attention. No introspection, no soul-searching, just emotional disfigurement. Where is the anguish? " -- W. N. Dayley, USA.
