Nihilistic Hope

Poem by Baphomet0

Abysmal, abyssal black,

Constant, mental attack,

All the what if’s, and what could be’s,

All locks waiting, for the right keys,

Your own worst enemies,

The reality in which, you exist,

Your own making, don’t resist,

Through the highs, and the lows,

No one can ever, really know,

Your own chosen destiny,

Find a purpose, or so they say,

But do they know, the true way,

8 billion, different and yet the same,

All trying, to pay their way,

Our self-inflicted slavery,

Death was the price, paid for life,

Existing on, the edge of a knife,

Death is the toll, that we all pay,

So life can continue, day by day,

Our continual drudgery,

-Baphomet0-
