Dark Destiny

By Niru Rose

There is darkness all around

Yet I somehow feel at home

Just a lonely heart-throbbing sound

Freezing air & charging iPhone

No light, nothing bright, except my

Glimmering smile and glistening eyes,

Bruised yet a kind soul

Wrapping itself to heal

Aching to love

In a broken world

Not something somehow

But one thing, good as gold

Not being drugged to ecstasy

Losing yourself to fantasy

Stuck in this very reality

Is my dark destiny...
