Limericks of A Dark Soul

When it comes to my memories & thoughts,
They're quite often kept under lock
Oh how I try in vain
to forget all the pain
& All those losing battles I'd fought
 
It’s a wonder we even try,
When we struggle each day ’til we die,
And, try as we might,
We can’t get it right,
So I hang down my head and I sigh
 
I seem to have trapped myself here,
Just trying to fly free and clear,
I stayed just to gather
My thoughts all together,
And to kick everything into gear
 
 Lost in the denial of the soul,
There’s something missing; Not quite whole
I can go deep within,
But the truth’s there again
Must let go of what I can’t control
 
In this world We are all insane,
Products of ego, or anger, or shame
We all try to cope,
So we cling on to hope,
For, what do we really have to gain?
 
Whether we’re apart or together,
This moment never lasts forever,
Alone or apart,
On our own from the start,
We fly to the winds like a feather
