Blinded by light they see not who I am
Its blaze, its dazzle engulfs them all
It shines on them with the force of its lies
But the truth deep inside my darkness resides
I yearn to let the darkness out
Let it seep into the minds of those blind fools
Who believe the concealing, deceiving light
Believing only what they want to believe
I cry, I scream to be understood
To bare myself, my soul, my all
Only to be ignored my the mindless crowd
Not accepted for being what I am
Set in their ways they fear the darkness
Unnerved by its mysterious depths
Frightened, to delve into this enigma
Lest they see the demented truth
Hidden in the darkness seethes my soul
A sadist, hurting others to resolve my own hurt
Unable to break free from this ruthless chain
I lie here, alone, unaccepted.

1) this IS my usual genre in poetry. however much nonsensical and quirky i am in my prose, for some as yet unknown reason i simply cant seem to continue my facade of cheeriness in my poems. get used to it. you'll be seeing a lot of it soon enough.
2) i am a sadist thank you very much. and i believe i gave you the reasons too the last time i came over to delhi. deal with it.
