Poem of Despair

 
 
     I know nothing, I trust in nothing,
     I no longer in life see its brighter side.
     I approach my friend as if he were a lion
     I need nothing else. I am bored and tired.

     Someone knifes someone, smothers another..
     Everywhere, cheating, lying and greed.
     Would eyes not see and would ears not hear!
     Lermontov! Werent you right - "what in world is good?"

     Even thought is corrupt, even love is deceiving.
     Theres no fulfilled dream. All is smoke and mirrors.
     I see no joy in living, see in life no meaning.
     Im feeling horror. I master fear.
