Coal Closet…by Micael Villa

Hidden in the darkness
Locked in a room
Lurking in the shadows
The life I lived came with feelings of being deserted‚ disconnected‚ anxious‚ torment‚ panic‚ dull‚ comfortless‚ bleak‚ unpromising‚ friendless‚ confused
Angry at the world
I wish I could find the switch to turn on the light
But every time I’d wake
I’d tumble and fall onto my face
Tears running down my face constantly
Hungry for something more than this
No riches could make me rich
No water could quench my thirst
No food could stop the hunger
No facts could impress me
Trying night and night
Trying to find some sort of light
Then the words came that I needed to hear
“His love endures forever”
Love was all I needed
