dark night of the soul


with the loss of my love
i have also forgotten the art to pray
and god too, to me, is now remote

the scriptures, those ancient books
that kept feeding my faith in god
and sustained my habit to plead
no longer attract, nor excite my mind
to exert an impact on my soul
to reach higher and heavenward

my world both inside and outside
has collapsed completely
with that lack of care to love
and to be loved by god in human

the herb that once healed my heart
has now poisoned my blood
threatening also blockades to my road
pushing my soul to the darkest night
