Will-O’-The-Wisp
Will-O’-The-Wisp
An abyss of darkness knowing only but pain
A fist of darkness throwing only but pain
What owe ye pain?
Doubt not for darkness may be the light
A light for only seen through the bright of day
A day that rise after the darkness of night
A night of cold and drear
A night you fold from fear
A night you shed a tear
You shall know no more of things
As the night pre-enquisets the day
A day of stone
A day alone
But always a day of gain
A day no pain will stop you
For darkness can only exist as light be follow
For pain only exists for gain to follow
For the dark of night be ther from the light of day
Define the undefined
Reach the unreachable
Possible the impossible
Create the limitless
For you are of no limits
Will-O’-The-Wisp
For no man hath limit
For no man hath impossible
For no man hath unreachable
For no man hath undefined
So why hath man shed a tear of the dark at night?
Of the pain?
The drear?
So why doth man believe this to be a will-O’-The-Wisp
For the gain is in your hands
About this poem
For those of you in pain for the darkness hath overcome the light. A illusion that you aren’t better. You can’t get better. But that is just a fairytale, for if you believe the so called darkness and pain can be used to fuel the fire. The fire of the grind. This fuel will bring you success. Pain is temporary, so use it to your advantage.
