Drowning in a sea of darkness I wander with a purpose that is beyond my comprehension.To live a life without love, happiness, and truth, I am guided by a single light from an unfathomable distance.
A light that is blinding,unyielding,It's source is beyond imagination and seemingly untouchable.Yet it is the force that lifts.It allows me to ascend to the highest heights,but will not hold me there.
I am lifted, but allowed to fall.
Why am I to see the objects which might bring an end to the darkness,yet never have them?
Am I doomed to the shadows?
A phantom to fill the darkness,so that others may be forever without this haunting abyss? If so,then why me?Have I wronged?Am I held in darkness with only fear and loneliness for company or are my restraints a creature of my imagination?
To live is to walk a path. One that challenges not only our mind and body,but also our hearts.Will you step forward in to the light, against the bonds of fear or surrender to the shadows only to exist, but never live?

Our life is beyond our comprehension. Before we know, there is already a plan for our life, that we are obliged to fulfill and learn along the way. If stepping forward to the light can give me clarification of my troubled and confused mind, I prefer to do so.
When I was confronted with a marital relation problem, I did see a sea of darkness that I developed negative thoughts.

so how did you deal with the negative thoughts?
and what if the path leading to the light is a forbidden path
